Scores 16 points
Mayer closed with 16 points (5-14 FG, 1-10 3Pt, 5-7 FT), six rebounds, one assist and two steals across 32 minutes during Sunday's 76-71 loss to Purdue.
Impact
Fortunately for Mayer, he did not have to sit out any games because of the strange caffeine poisoning that affected his availability before Illinois hosted Michigan on Thursday. Instead, he finished the Illini's 2022-23 regular season having logged 40 points across its last two games. Now, Illinois will prepare for a second-round Big Ten tournament matchup Thursday.

Returns to practice Wednesday
Mayer participated in practice Wednesday after being sick the previous few days with "caffeine poisoning", Derek Piper of Rivals.com reports.
Impact
Mayer claims to have drank five Monster Energy drinks while playing video games after Sunday's win over Ohio State, causing him to miss two days of practice. However, he should be good to go for Thursday's matchup with Michigan.
