Hesitant in return Vescovi amassed six points (2-7 FG, 2-7 3Pt), two rebounds and three assists across 31 minutes during Saturday's 77-56 win over LSU.

Impact While Vescovi made it back from a one-game absence forced by a shoulder injury, he seemed to be a bit hesitant to pull the trigger, as it was his lowest amount of field goals attempted since non-conference play. He had been heating up prior to the injury, averaging 15.7 ppg over a six-game stretch in which he recorded double-digit points in every game. Vescovi should be able to bounce back against a softer defensive matchup Wednesday versus Georgia.
