Pryce Sandfort - Sparks Huskers from outside Sandfort supplied 20 points (5-13 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 6-7 FT), nine rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in 32 minutes during Saturday's 72-63 victory over USC Upstate.

Impact Sandfort's scoring has been steadily tied to the three-ball, as the junior transfer from Iowa is attempting a career-best 8.5 three-pointers per game, more than twice the number he was allotted as a reserve for the Hawkeyes last season. He's hitting them at a solid 36.8 percent mark, and as a result, is averaging a career-best 16.1 ppg -- the second-best mark on this year's Nebraska squad. Mix that with 5.4 rpg and 2.9 apg averages, and you'd be hard-pressed to find a fantasy format where Sandfort isn't rostered, or at least valuable.
