Bruce Thornton - High volume sans Mobley Thornton posted 28 points (12-21 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist and three steals in 38 minutes during Saturday's 70-66 loss to Virginia.
Impact With Thornton's counterpart John Mobley (15.1 ppg) sidelined indefinitely by a hand injury, it will be up to the senior to carry the offensive load the rest of the way out if the Buckeyes plan to get on the right side of the NCAA Tournament bubble. Thornton answered the call from an individual standpoint by matching his highest scoring total of the calendar year, but he didn't get quite enough help in what ended up a narrow home loss. The margin for error is quite slim for Ohio State moving forward with matchups against Wisconsin (Feb. 17) and Michigan State (Feb. 22) set for this week.

Malik Thomas - Leads balanced attack Thomas had 13 points (4-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds and two assists across 21 minutes during Saturday's 70-66 victory over Ohio State.
Impact Virginia runs a balanced offensive attack that can run through any of its seven primary rotation players on any given night, so Thomas can occasionally be susceptible to a volatile game log. He had just three points on 1-for-7 shooting against Florida State earlier this week, but he rebounded to lead the team in scoring Saturday in what was yet another resume-building victory for the Cavaliers. On the season, Thomas leads Virginia with 45 three-pointers made and is second on the squad in scoring at 12.2 ppg.

Ivan Njegovan - Grabs five boards in loss Njegovan recorded four points (2-3 FG) and five rebounds over 14 minutes during Saturday's 70-66 loss to Virginia.
Impact Njegovan was more efficient in the pain than usual in the loss to the Cavaliers, logging his best rebound total since January. The sophomore big man has struggled to cement himself as the backup center for the Buckeyes so far this season, but he continues to get minutes as a secondary option.
