Impact Jaland Lowe led the Panthers in scoring Monday, but Leggett had an impressive all-around showing and posted a double-double. Points and rebounds aside, Leggett was excellent on both ends of the court, and he figures to play a prominent role for Pittsburgh in 2024-25.

Scores in double digits again Leggett chipped in 15 points (5-10 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and one assist in 30 minutes during Tuesday's 91-58 loss to Wake Forest.

Impact Leggett might be playing off the bench for the Panthers, but there's no question he's been extremely efficient as an offensive weapon. He has scored in double digits in three games in a row, as well as in eight of his last nine contests, averaging 13.2 points per contest in that nine-game stretch.

Struggles from field Tuesday Leggett closed Tuesday's 74-63 win over Virginia with 13 points (2-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 7-8 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and three steals in 29 minutes.

Impact Leggett had a decent stat line across the board and finished just two rebounds shy of a double-double, but it's worth noting he earned most of his points from the charity stripe following a subpar shooting display. Leggett has been a reliable offensive weapon for the Panthers all season long, however, and he's been on a tear of late after scoring in double digits in six of his last seven games.

Will try to participate in practice Leggett (shoulder) will try to participate in Pittsburgh's team practice Monday, per Noah Hiles of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

Impact Pittsburgh's head coach Jeff Capel said he is "not sure" concerning Leggett being available for when the Panthers play their next game. The injured guard has not participated in team practices since Saturday. But now that the Panthers have only one day before their game Tuesday against Duke, Leggett will try his absolute best to be ready.

Moves to bench Leggett isn't in the starting lineup for Saturday's game versus Louisville, Jerry DiPaola of TribLive.com reports.

Impact Leggett will be replaced by Jaland Lowe in the starting five Saturday. Leggett is averaging 12.6 points, 6.2 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.3 steals in 29.9 minutes across his 14 appearances this season.

Scores 19 with 20 shots Leggett notched 19 points (7-20 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and two steals across 35 minutes during Wednesday's 86-71 loss to Florida.

Impact Leggett didn't have his most efficient and finished with more field goal attempts than points scored, but either way, he posted a strong stat line and was one of Pittsburgh's best players in this game. Leggett has scored in double digits while grabbing at least seven rebounds in all but one of his appearances.

Strong double-double in win Leggett racked up 18 points (6-14 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 5-6 FT), 11 rebounds, five assists and four steals over 27 minutes during Friday's 89-60 win over Binghamton.

Impact The Panthers cruised their way to an easy 29-point victory over Binghamton, and Leggett certainly played an important role as a two-way presence. While this game will probably end up being one of Leggett's best efforts of the entire campaign, it's worth noting he started the 2023-24 season on a strong note with back-to-back double-digit scoring outings.
