Scores 14 off the bench Adams contributed 14 points (6-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 24 minutes during Wednesday's 75-64 loss to Iowa.

Impact Adams had the hot hand for the Terrapins, but it wasn't enough to keep the season rolling. The 6-5 freshman closed his season three double-digit scoring performances off the bench after starting 28 of the first 30 games. He should be able to use his experience in his second season in 2026-27.

Strong campaign continues Adams posted 13 points (5-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one block over 32 minutes during Sunday's 68-57 loss to Rutgers.

Impact Though Maryland is enduring its worst season since the early nineties, Adams has been a consistent bright spot. The freshman guard averages 11.8 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.5 assists and has scored in double figures in three straight games for the Terps. There's been some growing pains -- he could certainly improve on his 36/26/72 shooting splits -- but Adams is laying the groundwork for what appears to be a highly promising career.

Leading scorer as losing continues Adams ended with 17 points (6-14 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds and one steal over 33 minutes during Sunday's 93-63 loss to Purdue.

Impact Adams' 17 points were his most since Dec. 28, but he needed 14 shots to hit that total in yet another loss for the Terps. Purdue is a tough matchup for anyone in the country, but Maryland is now a meager 1-9 in conference play after a third straight loss. Adams has had a very solid freshman season despite the disaster of a year for the Terps, averaging 12.1 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.5 assists. He's a definite bright spot in College Park.

11 points in yet another loss Adams logged 11 points (3-5 FG, 5-6 FT), two rebounds and one steal across 16 minutes during Tuesday's 88-71 loss to USC.

Impact Adams has done all he can as a freshman on this struggling Terps team, but his third straight double-digit scoring outing wasn't close to enough to help Maryland avoid an 0-6 start in conference play. He's had some growing pains, which is to be expected, but he's still averaging 12.5 points and 3.8 rebounds. Adams will continue to be a fixture for the Terps even as they stumble through Big Ten play.
