Solid outing as Rutgers rolls Grant ended with nine points (4-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 0-3 FT), six rebounds, one block and one steal over 30 minutes during Sunday's 68-57 win over Maryland.

Impact Rutgers picked up a much-needed win to snap a seven-game losing streak, and while Grant wasn't the main catalyst, he had a solid outing. Shooting 50 percent from the field and pulling down six boards, the sophomore forward bounced back after being held to a total of eight points and three rebounds in his last two games. Since re-entering the starting five for the Scarlet Knights, Grant is averaging 7.5 points and 4.0 rebounds.

Bounce-back game in loss Grant accumulated 11 points (4-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, one block and two steals in 34 minutes before fouling out of Tuesday's 88-79 OT loss to Michigan State.

Impact Grant was coming off his first start in three games, but he was hardly involved in Rutgers' Jan. 23 loss to Indiana, suppling three points across 12 minutes. The sophomore forward managed to get back into the swing of things despite the loss to the Spartans, as he was efficient from the field and pulled down his most rebounds since Dec. 29. Grant had his inconsistencies as a starter, but he still averaged 13.5 points and 5.3 rebounds in his first stint in the starting five this season. If he can find his groove again, Grant could be a viable option for fantasy managers once more.

In starting five Grant (illness) is in the starting lineup for Thursday's game versus Illinois, Jerry Carino of the Asbury Park Press reports.

Impact Grant has apparently been a bit under the weather but is well enough to start in Thursday's road tilt. Grant's minutes will certainly be something to monitor until he's fully past his illness. He's a crucial piece to Rutgers pulling off the upset, averaging 13.8 points and 5.5 rebounds per contest.

Rutgers takes on No. 16 Illinois after Francis' 30-point game

Rutgers visits the No. 16 Illinois Fighting Illini after Tariq Francis scored 30 points in the Scarlet Knights' 88-85 overtime victory against the Oregon Ducks

JANUARY 7 • Associated Press

Quiet outing in exciting win Grant contributed six points (0-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT) and one rebound in 17 minutes during Monday's 88-85 OT win over Oregon.

Impact Grant's six points were still surely crucial in a narrow three-point overtime victory, but it matched his lowest scoring output of the season. The starting center didn't hit a shot from the floor but managed to get to the charity stripe and was perfect from the free-throw line, somewhat salvaging his day box score-wise. The sophomore forward is still having a great season, averaging 13.5 points and 5.5 rebounds, so this looks like something of an outlier.
