Tylen Riley - Fills box score in win Riley totaled 16 points (4-15 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 8-8 FT), eight rebounds, eight assists and one block across 32 minutes during Wednesday's 83-66 victory over Memphis.

Impact Riley has helped the Golden Hurricane win the team's last three games with 15.7 points, 6.7 rebounds and 6.0 assists. The 6-3 junior has not hit a 3-pointer in conference play, but he is not a volume perimeter shooter (just eight attempts through six games). Tulsa is in a tie for second in the American and will go for its fourth straight win on Saturday against Rice.

Ashton Hardaway - Scores season-high 18 points Hardaway accumulated 18 points (6-9 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 1-3 FT), two assists, one block and one steal in 22 minutes during Wednesday's 83-66 loss to Tulsa.

Impact Hardaway has been shooting well and has converted 58.8 percent (10-of-17) in his last three games. He doesn't always get a lot of shots, but the 6-8 junior has shown that he can score well called upon. He is making a career-high 38.5 percent of his 3-pointers, but is only averaging 6.6 points and 2.9 rebounds.

Aaron Bradshaw - Returns with 12 points Bradshaw (knee/ankle) registered 12 points (5-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), a season-high eight rebounds, one assist and one block in 25 minutes during Wednesday's 83-66 loss to Tulsa.

Impact The 7-1 junior ended up missing just one game after suffering what looked like a scary injury in the Jan. 14 win over Temple. He has scored at least 12 points in three of his last four games. Bradshaw is averaging 8.4 points on 54.4 percent from the field. The Tigers face an interesting test at Wichita State on Saturday. Bradshaw's size could be a factor to help Memphis the team's fifth conference game.
