Michael Ajayi - 28-point double-double in 2OT win Ajayi racked up 28 points (8-18 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 11-16 FT), 15 rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals in 44 minutes during Saturday's 113-110 2OT victory over Providence.
Impact Ajayi logged his eighth double-double of the season in the close win over the Friars, and he did so with a season-high in both points and rebounds. The senior forward has taken his game to a new level this campaign after transferring in from Gonzaga. He's currently averaging a double-double, and he's logged double-digit points in every game this year.

Jason Edwards - Explodes off bench in OT loss Edwards finished with 32 points (12-22 FG, 6-13 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal over 34 minutes during Saturday's 113-110 2OT loss to Butler.
Impact Edwards was an absolute beast off the bench, even in an eventual OT loss to the Bulldogs. The 6-foot-1 guard's 32 points were a season high, as were his six three-point makes. Edwards has now averaged 18.8 points, 1.8 rebounds and 3.2 assists since being knocked down to bench duties with the Friars, so it wouldn't be crazy for him to be elevated back to a starting role soon.
