Emanuel Sharp - Caps Houston career with 17 points
Sharp logged 17 points (7-16 FG, 3-10 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 39 minutes during Thursday's 65-55 loss to Illinois.
Impact
Sharp was really the only Cougar to show much of anything on the offensive end and even at that, it still took him 10 shots from deep to convert on three of them. The senior guard, who is a rarity in college basketball in that he spent his entire career with one school, reached double figures in the scoring column in 30 of 37 games this season. He ends his career in Houston by averaging a career-best 15.5 points while shooting 37.2-percent from deep.

Kingston Flemings - Can't get it going
Flemings racked up 11 points (4-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and four assists across 37 minutes during Thursday's 65-55 loss to Illinois.
Impact
Like many of his fellow Cougars, Flemings struggled to get things going offensively. Flemings closed out the first half with a triple to give him nine points going into the break and it looked like it may light a fire under Houston. However, he only managed three shot attempts and two points in the second half as the Cougars bowed out in the Sweet 16. The standout freshman point guard had an otherwise outstanding season and while his decision for next year is not yet official, it looks highly likely that he'll test the NBA draft waters as a likely lottery pick. If this turns out to be his only season in Houston, he'll end his career with averages of 16.1 points, 5.2 assists, 4.1 rebounds and 1.5 steals while shooting 47.6-percent from the floor and 38.7-percent from deep.

Chris Cenac Jr. - Struggles from field
Cenac produced six points (3-12 FG, 0-3 3Pt), 10 rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 26 minutes during Thursday's 65-55 loss to Illinois.
Impact
Cenac crashed the glass for 10 boards, the 14th time this season he's reached double figures, but struggled significantly from the field as Houston fell in the Sweet 16. Cenec just couldn't find the touch with his midrange game despite having a number of open looks. The freshman big man ended his first season with Houston by averaging 9.5 points and 7.9 rebounds while shooting 48.5-percent from the floor. He will now take time to discuss his options before deciding on whether he'll make himself available for the NBA draft or return to Houston for his sophomore season.
