College basketball rankings: Duke takes over No. 1; St. John's enters top 5
FOX Sports' John Fanta breaks down what stood out most from the weekend and reveals his latest top 25 rankings.MARCH 10, 2025 • FOX SPORTS
Miro Little - Makes it rain with six triples Little supplied 21 points (7-14 FG, 6-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and two steals across 18 minutes during Saturday's 85-74 loss to BYU.
Impact Little came off the bench to make it rain, pouring in 6-of-8 from long range en route to a season-high 21-point performance. The sophomore reserve point guard had just played eight total minutes across the previous two outings but saw 18 minutes of action Sunday and rewarded the Utes with a season-best effort. Little began the season as a starter but was moved to the bench at the start of the calendar year. Saturday marked the third time he's reached double figures since making that transition.

Keba Keita - Crashing offensive glass Keita closed Saturday's 85-74 victory over Utah with 12 points (5-6 FG, 2-8 FT), seven rebounds, one block and one steal across 25 minutes.
Impact Keita continues to play well down the stretch for the Cougars, shooting 5-for-6 from the floor while pulling down five of his seven boards off the offensive glass. The junior center has been crashing the glass over the last two games, collecting 14 of his 22 rebounds on the offensive end after having retrieved 13 total across his previous 10 appearances. The Cougars enter the postseason as one of the hottest teams in the country, having won eight straight to earn the four-seed and a double-bye in the upcoming Big 12 tournament. Keita has contributed 7.8 points, 7.9 rebounds and 1.5 blocks during that stretch and will be a key contributor for a BYU squad that is looking to do some damage in the NCAA tournament and make its first Sweet 16 appearance in 15 seasons.

Mihailo Boskovic - Contributes off bench Boskovic finished Saturday's 85-74 win over Utah with 11 points (3-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one steal in 17 minutes.
Impact Boskovic attempted a season-high five threes, though he connected on just one during BYU's victory in the regular season finale. Despite the struggles from beyond the arc, Boskovic was otherwise effective, matching a season high and bookending the season with matching 11-point performances. The junior forward has seen an uptick over the past couple of games, averaging 18.5 minutes per contest thanks to the absence of reserve guard Kanon Catchings. Boskovic had only topped 10 minutes in three other conference games and will likely see his playing time revert back to normal once Catchings is able to rejoin the lineup.

Mawot Mag - Doing the little things Mag closed Saturday's 85-74 win over Utah with nine points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), one rebound and one steal across 24 minutes.
Impact Mag doesn't see much offensive volume for BYU, but he's started 16 straight games, and the results have been largely positive, as the Cougars sport a 13-3 record over that span. The fifth-year senior and Rutgers transfer has also quietly posted a career-best 78.0 percent from the free-throw line. He's also shooting 38.7 percent from distance, which is another career-best mark.

Egor Demin - All-around effort in win Demin had 10 points (5-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt), seven rebounds and six assists across 26 minutes during Saturday's 85-74 win over Utah.
Impact Demin was one of five BYU players in double figures as the Cougars won their eighth straight to close out the regular season. Individually, Demin has recorded double-digit scoring in three straight, with six or more boards in each of those contests as well. The freshman point guard may not be the primary option offensively, but his all-around production has been vital to the success of the NCAA Tournament-bound Cougars. Widely considered to be a first-round pick in next summer's NBA Draft, Demin will get a chance to showcase his skills on the national stage this postseason.
