College basketball rankings: Duke takes over No. 1; St. John's enters top 5
Langston Love - Drains three from deep Love closed with 10 points (3-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and one steal across 26 minutes during Saturday's 65-61 loss to Houston.
Impact Love drained three from beyond the arc at a 60-percent clip to record his first double-digit scoring output in four games. Despite the loss, the Bears did look better Saturday, outplaying Houston in many aspects during the close loss. If Baylor is to turn things around and live up to their preseason promise, Love will play a vital role with his ability to fill it up from deep.

Norchad Omier - Seventh straight double-double Omier racked up 13 points (5-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-4 FT), 16 rebounds, one assist and one block across 38 minutes during Saturday's 65-61 loss to Houston.
Impact Even against a tough Houston frontcourt, Omier managed his seventh-straight double-double -- a streak over which he's averaged 15.3 points and 12.1 rebounds. Despite Omier's recent play, Baylor has lost four of six to close out the regular season, though the Bears still appear to be on the right side of the NCAA Tournament bubble heading into next week's Big 12 tournament.

L.J. Cryer - Third straight with 20-plus Cryer logged 23 points (6-12 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 5-6 FT), two rebounds, one block and one steal across 36 minutes during Saturday's 65-61 win over Baylor.
Impact Cryer now has three consecutive games with 20 or more points and has reached double figures in 11 of his last 12, averaging 18.1 ppg over that span. The Cougars leading scorer (15.3 ppg) will look to carry this momentum into next week's Big 12 tournament in an effort to secure a No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament the following week.

J'Wan Roberts - Double-double in tight win Roberts had 11 points (4-8 FG, 3-5 FT), 10 rebounds and one assist across 38 minutes during Saturday's 65-61 victory over Baylor.
Impact Roberts continues to do the dirty work down low for a Houston team with a spectacular 19-1 conference record. It was the fifth-year senior's first double-double since Feb. 4 and third overall of the season. Roberts and the Cougars will carry the top seed and a 10-game winning streak into next week's Big 12 tournament.

Mylik Wilson - Returning to second unit Wilson is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Baylor.
Impact Wilson is another senior who wil return to the second unit in this contest. He's averaging 6.2 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 1.2 steals per game across 30 outings (one start) this season.
