Aaron Wheeler - Career day in defeat Wheeler contributed 31 points (11-17 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 75-69 loss to Villanova.
Impact With Posh Alexander sidelined by an ankle injury, it was Dylan Addae-Wusu who stepped into the starting five, but Wheeler was the one who saw the heavily-increased shot volume. In fact, the 17 field goals attempted were four more than any other single game this year. The effort allowed the Red Storm to keep things relatively close on a night where Julian Champagnie was just 4-for-15 from the field, but it ultimately wasn't enough to stave off the home loss and fall to 5-7 in Big East play. It's essentially been a tale of two seasons for Wheeler, who averaged just 4.5 ppg over his first 11 games, but is posting a 14.7 ppg mark over his most recent 11.
