Solid output Wednesday Blakes posted 17 points (3-8 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 10-12 FT), two rebounds, six assists and one steal over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 70-59 win over Virginia Tech.

Impact Blakes scored more than 50 percent of his points from the charity stripe, but he had a strong showing across the board and also dazzled as a playmaker with his six assists. Maxime Raynaud remains the team's go-to player on offense, but Blakes' contributions in the backcourt are very important for the Cardinal in their first season in the ACC.

Productive at both ends Blakes closed Tuesday's 77-63 win over Utah Valley with 18 points (5-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 7-10 FT), six rebounds, four assists and three steals in 34 minutes.

Impact Blakes was one of the main reasons why Stanford got another easy win Tuesday, and he's been one of the most productive players on the roster if excluding Maxime Raynaud. Blakes has scored at least 17 points in five of his last six outings, averaging 16.7 points per game in that span.

Scores season-high 22 points Blakes racked up 22 points (6-15 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 9-9 FT), six rebounds, five assists and one block across 36 minutes during Tuesday's 78-71 loss to Grand Canyon.

Impact As has been the trend all season long, Maxime Raynaud was the leading scorer for Stanford, but Blakes delivered a solid showing despite the loss. This 22-point effort represented a season-high mark for the senior, but his consistency has been remarkable as well. Blakes has scored at least 12 points in all but one of his seven outings.

Strong all-around showing Blakes recorded 17 points (5-8 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-8 FT), three rebounds, four assists and two steals across 23 minutes before fouling out of Sunday's 79-65 victory over UC Davis.

Impact Blakes had an impressive performance in this matchup. Even though Maxime Raynaud grabbed most of the headlines with his 33-point, 14-rebound effort, Blakes ended as Stanford's second-best scorer while also putting up solid numbers in peripheral stats. Don't expect him to emerge as a leading offensive option, though, as a best-case scenario would be to see him playing as the No.3 scoring threat behind Raynaud and Oziyah Sellers.

Scores 18 points Blakes accumulated 18 points (5-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 8-12 FT), three rebounds, five assists and one steal across 28 minutes during Friday's 80-53 win over Cal State Fullerton.
