Leads Miners in scoring McKinney (undisclosed) posted 17 points (6-13 FG, 5-6 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and two steals in 29 minutes during Wednesday's 68-67 win over Cal State Bakersfield.

Impact McKinney missed Tuesday's win over Alcorn State due to an undisclosed issue, but he returned to the court Wednesday to lead the Miners to a narrow win over the Roadrunners, and came close to a double-double in the process. As a sophomore at New Mexico State last season, McKinney averaged a mere 3.8 points per game, so he's currently on pace to boost his scoring average dramatically if he keeps it up going forward in 2022-23.
