Boosts Pitt to victory Sibande had 23 points (7-13 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 6-6 FT), nine rebounds and four assists across 37 minutes in Tuesday's 70-57 victory over Wake Forest.

Impact Sibande has made four consecutive starts for the Panthers but has been especially productive in his last three games, averaging 14.7 points, 7.0 rebounds and 3.0 assists over that span. With both Xavier Johnson and Au'Diese Toney in the transfer portal, a mountain of minutes has suddenly opened up in the backcourt, and the senior is taking full advantage. Pitt nonetheless remains a long shot for the NCAA Tournament.

Reserve role doesn't affect production Champagnie had 20 points (7-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 13 rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 31 minutes off the bench in Tuesday's 70-57 victory over Wake Forest.

Impact Champagnie came off the bench for the first time this season, and while some reports suggested it was due to a technical foul, it also seems possible the sophomore simply gave way to Terrell Brown on Senior Night. In any case, Champagnie was his usual, productive self, cashing in his fourth-straight double-double and 13th overall on the season. Pittsburgh has recently fallen out of NCAA Tournament contention and has seen multiple program departures, but there's no denying Champagnie has a bright future, likely in the NBA.

In starting lineup Brown will start Tuesday's game against Wake Forest.

Impact Brown earned his starting nod Tuesday by turning in a double-double in the previous contest, racking up 11 points and 11 boards versus N.C. State. The senior big man should continue to see consistent action off the bench to close out the campaign, especially given the recent transfers from the program.

Starting Sunday Odukale is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against NC State, Craig Meyer of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Impact Odukale will enter the starting five after the recent departures of Au'Diese Toney (concussion) and Xavier Johnson.

The 6-5 freshman has averaged 4.8 points, 2.2 rebounds and two assists in 17.1 minutes per game and will have a chance to improve on those measures in his new starting role.

Hits transfer portal Toney (concussion) has elected to enter the transfer portal, Craig Meyer of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Impact Toney is the second major contributor to enter the transfer portal for Pitt within the last couple of days. The reason behind the exits is a bit unclear, but the school is phrasing it as a mutual agreement to split paths. Toney should have two seasons of eligibility remaining at his next destination and, assuming there is nothing more behind his departure, find numerous schools interested in his services as a transfer.

Stuffs stat sheet in loss Johnson recorded 15 points (6-13 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, three assists, a steal and a block across 32 minutes in Saturday's loss against Florida State.

Impact Johnson has scored in double digits in five straight games -- a season-best mark for him -- and he reported a season-high 32 points in that stretch as well. He is averaging 16.8 points with 4.8 assists per game during that five-game span and has been a good second offensive option for the Panthers behind star forward Justin Champagnie.

Double-doubles once again Champagnie recorded 21 points (7-17 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 7-9 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists and a steal across 40 minutes in Saturday's loss against Florida State.

Impact Champagnie was the only player that surpassed the 20-point mark for the Panthers, and as it has been the trend all season long, he was Pittsburgh's best player by a wide margin. Champagnie has recorded double-doubles in six of his last seven contests.

Logs 23 minutes off the bench Odukale (leg) had eight points (3-5 FG, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and three assists in 23 minutes during Saturday's 79-72 loss against Florida State.

Impact Odukale came off the bench despite starting in Wednesday's game against NC State and had one of his better games as of late. He scored his most points since Jan. 23 and his 23 minutes on the floor were the most he's seen since Jan. 6. It seems he's found himself in a pretty consistent role and will need to continue to pick up some of the slack in the scoring department with Au'Diese Toney currently sidelined with a concussion.
