Smith continues to be an all-around guard for the Boilermakers who can stuff every category on the stat sheet.

Jack Benter - Ready to roll Saturday Benter (undisclosed) will be available for Saturday's clash with Iowa State, per the Big Ten availability report.

Impact Benter was unable to give it a go on Tuesday, marking his first absence of the season, but it appears the issue was relatively minor. He'll be back in the mix and should supply some depth off the bench again Saturday. In five games off the bench, Benter has averaged 3.0 points and 2.4 boards while shooting 41.7 percent from the field and 40.0 percent from deep over 14.0 minutes per contest.

Gicarri Harris - Continues solid play off bench Harris posted 11 points (4-5 FG, 3-4 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and one steal in 21 minutes during Tuesday's 81-65 win over Rutgers.

Impact Harris has now scored in double figures in two straight outings. The sophomore guard's role has increased in the past two games, as he's played over 20 minutes in each contest. He's been efficient and well-rounded in that span, hitting 9-of-13 shots from the floor with eight total rebounds, four assists and four steals. Purdue hasn't exactly faced a murderers' row of opponents recently, but Harris is proving that he can be a valuable commodity.

Braden Smith - Fingerprints all over Rutgers win Smith contributed 16 points (5-11 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and eight assists in 35 minutes during Tuesday's 81-65 victory over Rutgers.

Impact After he only took four shots in a blowout win over Eastern Illinois, Smith was more assertive in the Boilermakers' Big Ten opener. He canned four triples en route to his highest point total since Nov. 16 against Akron when he also dropped 16 points. He continues to be a highly skilled passer, as his eight dimes once again easily led the way for Purdue. Even when Smith has an off night shooting the basketball, there's so many other ways he can help his team win.
