Impact Riley had scored at least 30 points twice previously this season, but he topped his high by six points. The 6-5 senior had only converted 34.2 percent of his field goals and 1-of-12 on 3-pointers in his four previous games, but still managed to average 19.5 points.

Impact Riley has scored at least 21 points in five of his last six games. He has not helped himself of late and has made just 45 percent (9-of-20) from the free throw line. The 6-5 senior is playing heavy minutes (at least 35 in his last nine games) and has a high usage rate. Even if the Pirates continue to lose (and they have lost their last three games), Riley should put up big numbers.

Impact Riley has scored at least 18 points in his last three games and has played at least 37 minutes in each of those contests. The 6-5 senior is leading the Pirates with 19.8 points on 46.0 percent from the field.
