Another double-double Hugley notched 17 points (7-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 12 rebounds and one steal over 33 minutes during Wednesday's 91-75 loss to Wake Forest.

Impact Another game, another double-double for the big man who has reached that feat in two of his last three appearances, and in seven different contests already. Hugley is averaging 16.1 points and 9.4 rebounds per game since the beginning of January.

FEBRUARY 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Grabs season-high 18 boards Hugley notched 11 points (3-11 FG, 5-7 FT), 18 rebounds, two assists and one block in 35 minutes during Tuesday's 64-53 win over Syracuse.

Impact Hugley didn't have a good shooting performance, but the big man supplied that with an excellent rebounding effort as his 18 boards were a season-high mark for him. He now has six double-doubles on the season.

Goes for 23 points in loss Hugley posted 23 points (7-14 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 8-9 FT) and seven rebounds in 35 minutes during Wednesday's 66-61 loss to Virginia.

Impact Hugley ended with 15-plus points for the third time over his last four games, and the big man continues to thrive as one of Pittsburgh's best two-way players due to his ability on both ends of the court. Hugley has been unstoppable in January, averaging 18.6 points and 8.4 rebounds across 29.0 minutes per game in five appearances.

Shines with 32-point outing Hugley posted 32 points (8-13 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 15-20 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals across 37 minutes during Saturday's 69-67 victory over Boston College.

Impact Hugley carried the Panthers in this one and scored nearly half of the team's total output in what was a season-best performance for the big man. Hugley has been playing at a high level this season and has scored in double digits in eight of his last 10 contests.

JANUARY 7, 2022 • POST-GAZETTE.COM

Well-rounded effort in loss Hugley totaled 18 points (5-10 FG, 8-9 FT), six rebounds, three assists and three steals in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 68-67 loss to Notre Dame.

Impact Hugley did a good job of making his presence felt on both ends of the court, and he also managed to bounce back after two straight games with eight or fewer points. The big man has been one of the Pirates' best players in the opening weeks of the campaign, averaging 14.8 points and 7.9 rebounds per contest in what has been his first year as a starter with the program.

DECEMBER 29, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Fourth double-double of season Hugley ended Sunday's 56-52 loss to Monmouth with 14 points (4-12 FG, 6-9 FT), 13 rebounds, two assists and one block over 37 minutes.

Impact Another game, another performance where Hugley manages to stand tall above his teammates while impressing on both ends of the court. The big man has four double-doubles already and continues to rack up stats left and right. In his first year as a starter, Hugley is averaging 15.9 points and 8.0 rebounds per tilt.

DECEMBER 14, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Impresses at both ends Hugley chipped in 22 points (8-13 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 6-8 FT), seven rebounds, one assist, two blocks and two steals in 21 minutes during Thursday's 71-68 win over Colgate.

Impact Hugley has looked impressive on offense this season and it's safe to say he's been the like-for-like replacement for Justin Champagnie so far, as the latter is now playing in the G League. Hugley has scored in double digits in all but two of his games to date and has recorded at least 20 points in three of his last four contests.

Hugley scores 22 as Pitt beats Colgate 71-68

John Hugley scored 18 of his 22 points in the second half, Jamarius Burton added 13 points and Pittsburgh beat Colgate 71-68 to snap a four-game skid

DECEMBER 10, 2021 • Associated Press

Goes for 12 points in loss Hugley posted 12 points (2-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 7-8 FT), three rebounds and one assist across 35 minutes during Friday's 57-56 loss to Virginia.

Impact Hugley has scored in double digits in all but two of his appearances this season, including each of his last three games. The big man also has three double-doubles and has been one of Pittsburgh's most consistent players in the first weeks of the campaign.

DECEMBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Shines in loss to Minny Hugley registered 25 points (9-16 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 6-11 FT), 14 rebounds, one block and one steal over 35 minutes during Tuesday's 54-53 loss to Minnesota.

Impact The fact that Hugley scored nearly half of the Panthers' points in this one suggests two things -- he's the undisputed top dog in the offense and the team also lacks a reliable second offensive threat to back him up or support him at times. Hugley has looked extremely good this season, and while his upside is quite high right now, he might regress at some point since he simply can't do everything on his own.

DECEMBER 1, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Goes for 21 points Hugley supplied 21 points (8-10 FG, 5-7 FT), seven rebounds and one assist over 30 minutes during Saturday's 87-77 loss to UMBC.

Impact Hugley was one of three Pittsburgh players that scored in double digits in this one, and he was the leading scorer for the Panthers even though they picked up yet another loss. Hugley has been one of the team's best players and is averaging 14.3 points and 7.2 rebounds per game in his first year as the team's starting center.

NOVEMBER 28, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Records another double-double Hugley totaled 13 points (4-11 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists and one steal across 35 minutes during Tuesday's 59-51 win over UNCW.

Impact Hugley has two double-doubles over his first three appearances of the season and has looked impressive to date, scoring in double digits in each of his contests. His shooting percentages aren't encouraging for a big man -- just 51.2 percent from the field -- but the positives outweigh the negatives in this one.

NOVEMBER 17, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

17 points with six boards Hugley recorded 17 points (7-10 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and two assists in 24 minutes during Friday's 74-59 loss to West Virginia.

Impact Hugley couldn't repeat what he accomplished in the season opener when he finished with 27 points, but he had another strong outing while looking very efficient from a shooting perspective. It's only been two games, but there are glimpses that lead to believe Hugley is in line for a big year as one of Pittsburgh's main scoring threats.

NOVEMBER 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Explodes for 27 points Hugley provided 27 points (10-20 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 7-13 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal across 34 minutes during Tuesday's 78-63 loss to Citadel.

Impact Hugley was Pittsburgh's main scoring threat by a wide margin, and while he wasn't particularly sharp with his shooting, his strong all-around performance and solid scoring numbers allowed him to deliver a strong performance on opening night. Up next for him there's a favorable matchup Friday at West Virginia.
