Keaton Wagler Scores 46 Points To Lead No. 11 Illinois Past No. 4 Purdue

Keaton Wagler scored a career-high 46 points, making nine 3s, as No. 11 Illinois beat No. 4 Purdue on Saturday, 88-82.

Keaton Wagler Scores 46 Points To Lead No. 11 Illinois Past No. 4 Purdue

Shatters records in huge road win Wagler had 46 points (13-17 FG, 9-11 3Pt, 11-13 FT) and four assists over 39 minutes during Saturday's 88-82 victory over Purdue.

Impact Wagler was absolutely unconscious as Illinois picked up a signature win over Purdue on the road in Mackey Arena. He poured on a whopping 46 for the most points ever scored by a freshman in Illini history, and also served as the closer late in the game, hitting a clutch floater to essentially put the game out of reach in the waning seconds. The freshman had been very solid from distance, hitting just under 40 percent of his threes coming into the game, but he buried an unreal 9-of-11 against the Boilermakers, helping him achieve his staggering point total on just 17 shots. The sky appears to be the limit for the 6-foot-6 guard from Kansas.

No. 11 Illinois visits the No. 4 Purdue Boilermakers after Andrej Stojakovic scored 30 points in the Fighting Illini's 89-70 victory over the Maryland Terrapins

JANUARY 23 • Associated Press

Another stat-stuffer Wagler finished Wednesday's 89-70 win over Maryland with 13 points (4-12 FG, 1-9 3Pt, 4-6 FT), seven rebounds and eight assists in 33 minutes.

Impact Wagler's stellar freshman season keep chugging along, as he now leads the Illini in both scoring (15.9 ppg) and assists (4.0 apg) while checking in at second on the team in rebounding (5.2 rpg). He's firmly grabbed the attention of NBA Scouts at this point and will get even more volume allotted to him in the coming weeks while Kylan Boswell is sidelined with a hand fracture.
