Efficient day in huge win Ivisic ended with 12 points (5-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt), eight rebounds, three assists and one block over 32 minutes during Sunday's 78-69 win over Nebraska.

Impact Ivisic bounced back from a rough shooting outing in Illinois' win over Washington, in which he went just 3-of-11 from distance, with a very solid day in a monster win over Nebraska. Aside from the scoring, aided by two triples, he pulled down eight boards and dished out three assists. He's been developing as a passer as of late, as he has three dimes in three of his last four games. Truly big production outings are few and far between for Ivisic, but he remains a key piece for the Illini.
