Leads scoring as Arizona advances Peat produced 20 points (9-18 FG, 2-4 FT), seven rebounds and three assists in 34 minutes during Saturday's 79-64 victory over Purdue.

Impact While some thought Peat his a freshman wall in February (which may have been due in part to injury), the 6-8 forward has silenced all doubters when the stakes were the highest. Through a five-game stretch that spans the Big 12 Championship and four NCAA Tournament games, Peat is averaging 18.2 ppg, 6.6 rpg and 2.0 apg, with back-to-back 20-point efforts in the Sweet 16 and Elite Eight. He's a major reason Arizona has found itself in the Final Four for the first time since 2001 and has shaken the program's tournament woes from recent memory.
