Klavzar is hitting just 41.2 percent of his field goals, which is sadly the best mark among the Gator guards. Florida hosts Auburn on Saturday. The guard had nine points in 17 minutes in the win over then-number one Tigers last season.

Impact Chinyelu had his ninth double-double and his scoring has been on the rise. He has scored in double digits in six of his last seven games (five double-doubles in that span) and has converted 62.9 percent of his field on the season. While he doesn't get to the free throw line often (3.2 times per game), he has improved his free throw rate by almost 10 percent for the second straight season (67.3 percent this year).

Last Night in College Basketball: LSU Stuns Texas in Upset-Full Weekend

Urban Klavzar - Working as sixth man Klavzar racked up 15 points (4-10 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 4-4 FT) across 28 minutes during Saturday's 91-67 win over Tennessee.

Impact Klavzar functions as Florida's sixth-man in his junior season, spelling Xaivian Lee as one of the first options off the bench and essentially doubling his playing time from a season ago. He's scored 11 or more in three of his last four and is sixth on the team with a 9.0 ppg scoring average. Saturday was his best scoring total since late-November when he put up 20 and 18 points in consecutive games against TCU and Providence, respectively.

JANUARY 12 • ROTOWIRE

Xaivian Lee - Keeping steady role Lee provided 10 points (3-8 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and three assists across 22 minutes during Saturday's 91-67 win over Tennessee.

Impact Lee has largely been productive for the Gators, reaching double figures in seven of his last eight games and averaging 14.9 points, 3.9 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.4 steals over that span. He's found things a bit more challenging in SEC play, however, as he's averaging 9.0 points in three contests, over which Florida is 2-1. Lee and the Gators will find themselves as likely favorites in Tuesday's road matchup against Oklahoma.
