Flirts with triple double Council racked up 17 points (8-15 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 0-1 FT), eight rebounds, 10 assists and one steal over 31 minutes during Saturday's 104-85 victory over Kansas State.

Impact Council flirted with a triple double, putting together his best scoring output in nearly a month while reaching double figures in assists for the second time this season and matching a season high with eight boards. The senior playmaker who became a fan-favorite in his only season with the Jayhawks thrived in his last performance in front of the Fogg-Allen faithful. Council averaged 13.7 points, 5.3 rebounds, 5.2 assists and 1.2 steals during conference play, though he had failed to reach double figures in the scoring column in three of five games heading into Saturday's masterpiece.

Comes up clutch in monumental win Council accumulated 23 points (6-25 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 10-11 FT), six rebounds, six assists and one steal over 40 minutes during Monday's 82-78 victory over Arizona.

Impact Council didn't put together the most efficient performance in failing to connect on 19 of his 25 shot attempts but he still managed to score five of his 23 points in the final minute to help Kansas hold off Arizona and hand the top-ranked Wildcats their first loss of the season. The senior playmaker saw ridiculous usage thanks in large part to the absence of Darryn Peterson (flu-like symptoms), topping five boards for the sixth-straight game and six assists for the fourth time in five games while hoisting at least 25 shots for the second time this season. Council topped 20 points for the second time in league play and is averaging 15.5 points, 5.4 rebounds and 5.1 assists across 36.0 minutes through 11 games against Big 12 competition.

Continues quality play Council registered 15 points (7-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt), six rebounds, six assists and one steal in 37 minutes during Saturday's 90-82 victory over BYU.

Impact Council continues to play good basketball for the Jayhawks with his 15 point, six rebound, six assist performance coming on the heels of posting 17/7/12 against Kansas State last Saturday. In total, it was the third time in conference play and the fifth time this season he's accumulated at least 10/5/5 in a contest. For the season, Council has now topped 15 points 10 times, five boards 13 times and five assists on 11 different occasions.

Producing even with Peterson back Council provided 18 points (7-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and two steals in 35 minutes during Tuesday's 75-69 victory over Colorado.

Impact Council has been forced to step back a bit offensively with the return of five-star freshman and future NBA lottery pick Darryn Peterson, but he came in clutch here with a four-game scoring high on a night in which Peterson was limited to 16. There's still plenty of fantasy value here for the Kansas point guard, even with Peterson at full strength, as Council is also chipping in averages of 4.8 apg and 4.5 rpg. The duo has helped the Jayhawks to a three-game winning streak, which includes a signature victory Jan. 13 against Iowa State.
