Watch: Highlights From Cincinnati's 69-66 Loss to Utah The Bearcats didn't have enough high-flying moments.
Keanu Dawes - Solid play off bench Dawes racked up 12 points (4-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), nine rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 30 minutes during Tuesday's 69-66 victory over Cincinnati.
Impact Dawes played a season-high 30 minutes off the bench, recording 12 points on 4-for-5 shooting while finishing one rebound shy of his second double-double of the season. The sophomore forward rebounded after being held scoreless during Utah's previous matchup against Baylor. Dawes has seen time in nine conference games, averaging 8.2 points and 5.0 boards across 18.0 minutes in Big 12 action.

Dan Skillings - Cold streak continues Skillings contributed four points (1-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), one rebound and one block in 25 minutes during Tuesday's 69-66 loss to Utah.
Impact Skillings has now gone without a three-pointer made in four consecutive contests and is shooting just 27.3 percent from the field over that span. The drought has brought his season-long average down to 10.9 ppg, a full two points less than last season's mark with the Bearcats.

Jizzle James - Paces team with 18 James ended with 18 points (6-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-5 FT), three rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals in 31 minutes during Tuesday's 69-66 loss to Utah.
Impact James paced the Bearcats with 18 points Tuesday, just one point shy of a season high. The sophomore point guard has started every game this season but after averaging 12.0 points, 5.2 assists and 3.7 rebounds through the non-conference slate, had seen his production dip to 8.3 points, 2.8 assists and 3.1 rebounds through eight Big 12 conference games prior to Tuesday. However, he has now scored at least 12 points in three of his last four and will look to keep that momentum rolling when the Bearcats play West Virginia in a home tilt on Sunday.

Gabe Madsen - Gets scoring back on track Madsen finished with 18 points (5-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 7-8 FT), two rebounds, four assists and one block across 31 minutes during Tuesday's 69-66 win over Cincinnati.
Impact Conference play hasn't been kind to Madsen of late, as he had been just 7-for-32 (21.9 percent) from the field over his last three games leading up to Tuesday. He was able to bounce back to a degree with his second-highest scoring total of the calendar year, helping the Utes pick up their fourth win in Big 12 play. Next up is a road matchup against Oklahoma State on Saturday.
