Historic season continues Jefferson finished with 22 points (6-14 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 8-10 FT), five rebounds, five assists and five steals across 34 minutes during Saturday's 82-73 loss to Texas Tech.

Impact Jefferson filled out the box score with 22 points, five boards, fives assists, the 16th time this season he's scored in double figures while adding at least five and five and the fourth time he's done so when scoring at least 20. The senior forward, who has reached double figures in scoring in every game this season, also added a season-high five steals to go along with the rest of his impressive stat line. For the season, Jefferson is currently averaging 16.8 points, 7.4 rebounds, 5.2 assists and 1.6 steals. If he finishes the season with those numbers, he'll be the first Big 12 player and only the sixth Division 1 player over the past 51 years to match or surpass those figures.

Struggling from field Jefferson accumulated 13 points (4-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-5 FT), eight rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals in 35 minutes during Saturday's 79-69 loss to BYU.

Impact Jefferson remains one of the top and most consistent overall players in the Big 12, though he's seen a drop in his scoring efficiency in recent games. The senior forward has reached double figures in every game this season but after averaging 17.2 points while shooting 50.0-percent from the floor and 40.9-percent from three across his first 23 games, he's seen those numbers dip to 12.0, 34.8 and 20.0 over the last four. Despite the recent scoring dip, he remains productive in all other facets, averaging 8.0 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 1.4 steals and 0.9 blocks in 14 games against Big 12 competition.

Stuffs stat sheet Jefferson totaled 12 points (5-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, nine assists, two blocks and three steals in 38 minutes during Tuesday's 62-55 loss to TCU.

Impact Jefferson struggled from the field but otherwise stuffed the stat sheet during Tuesday's loss to the Horned Frogs. The senior forward who has two triple doubles since the start of conference play threatened to post his third, though he ultimately finished one assist and two boards shy of accomplishing the feat. He also added three steals and sent back two shots on the other end of the floor, the fourth time he's posted multiples in both categories in the same game this season. Through 11 games against Big 12 competition, Jefferson is averaging 15.6 points, 8.4 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 1.6 steals and 0.9 blocks across 33.9 minutes of action.
