Kelly scores 21 to carry UMass over La Salle 77-71
Rich Kelly had 21 points as UMass topped La Salle 77-71JANUARY 27, 2022 • Associated Press
Team-high 20 points at UR Kelly totaled 20 points (8-12 FG, 4-5 3Pt), five assists and one steal across 37 minutes during Wednesday's 80-72 loss to Richmond.
Impact It's the second time Kelly has gone for 20+ in the Minutemen's last four games. He doesn't do enough elsewhere to merit major fantasy consideration, averaging 1.9 boards and 3.5 assists, but if this scoring uptick continues in conference, there can be some appeal. Kelly is worth monitoring as such.

BC looks to rebuild again, this time under Earl Grant
Boston College coach Earl Grant knows it’s likely going to be a tough first year on the job for himOCTOBER 20, 2021 • Associated Press
Boston College guard Rich Kelly transfers to UMass - The Boston Globe Kelly averaged 11 points and 2.4 assists for the Eagles this season.

Done for season, transferring Kelly won't return during the 2020-21 season due to a foot injury and will enter the transfer portal, All Facts Media reports.
Impact Kelly posted a productive campaign with the Eagles in 2020-21, racking up 11 points, 2.4 assists and 1.7 rebounds per game following his transfer from Quinnipiac. The senior will have one more season of eligibility remaining at his next destination and should have eligibility for next season.

Explodes for 27 points Kelly notched 27 points (10-16 FG, 7-12 3Pt, 0-1 FT), two rebounds and four assists across 38 minutes in Tuesday's win over Miami.
Impact Kelly has started three games in a row and has scored in double digits in each one of those contests, but he came through with his best performance of the season Tuesday -- he posted season-best marks in points, field goals made, threes made, field-goal attempts and three-point attempts. Kelly is averaging 17.7 points since moving to the starting lineup after beginning the year on a bench role, though his uptick in minutes might be strictly related to the injuries the Eagles have been sustaining on the backcourt of late.

Starting Wednesday Kelly is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against Duke.
Impact The senior will garner his first start this season, as Makai Ashton-Langford is out with a knee injury. Kelly is currently averaging 9.2 points and 2.2 assists per game.

Scores 13 points off bench Kelly delivered 13 points (4-8 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-4 FT), two rebounds and an assist in 22 minutes off the bench during Thursday's 90-70 loss against Florida.
Impact Kelly logged only 22 minutes but that was more than enough to carry the Eagles offensively in their third loss over their first four games of the season. The senior has begun the Eagles' first four games off the bench but has surpassed the 10-point mark in three of those contests, so he clearly has value even if he's not cracking the starting five on a regular basis.
