Out of starting five Newton won't start against Bradley in the second round of the NIT.

Helps keep winning streak alive Newton provided 27 points (9-16 FG, 8-12 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals in 26 minutes during Tuesday's 76-74 OT win over Saint Louis.

Impact It was a new season-high in scoring for the fifth-year senior, and to say it came out of nowhere would be an understatement, as Newton had been averaging just 4.3 ppg over the previous eight contests leading up to Tuesday. Don't look now, but George Mason is in the midst of a 10-game winning streak, with multiple victories over the A-10's top teams, and currently sits at the top spot in the conference with an 11-1 league record.

Seven boards in tight loss Newton ended Saturday's 73-68 loss to Kansas State with six points (2-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, one block and one steal in 22 minutes.

Impact Newton collected his second-most rebounds of any game this season. The 6-foot-9 junior has seen a significant increase in playing and production since stepping up into a starting role over the last 12 games, though he's still just averaging 6.2 points and 4.2 rebounds while playing 24.0 minutes per contest over this span. Fantasy manager should instead invest their resources in Cowboys' big man Kalib Boone who has led the team with 12.0 points per game this season.

Posts double-digit points again Newton posted 12 points (5-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds and one block over 22 minutes during Saturday's 82-60 victory over Ole Miss.

Impact Newton started his fourth game in a row in place of 7-foot-1 senior Moussa Cisse, whom missed the Cowboys' previous contest against Texas due to an ankle injury. While Cisse was on the floor Saturday, he only played seven minutes off the bench. As a result, Newton played more than 20 minutes for the fifth time in the past six games. Newton has averaged 7.8 points and 4.8 rebounds over this span, making him a suitable fantasy replacement so long as Cisse remains limited by injury.

Plays 28, scores 12 Newton supplied 12 points (4-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-4 FT), five rebounds, one block and one steal across 28 minutes during Wednesday's 72-56 win over Oklahoma.

Impact Newton benefited from receiving more minutes than he usually does. He logged his first double-digit tally of points en route to Oklahoma State's win. But unless Newton consistently receives a lot of minutes, fantasy managers should expect him scoring neither much nor frequently.

Cracks starting five Newton will start for Oklahoma State as they host Oklahoma on Wednesday night.

Impact Newton's start against Oklahoma will be his first of the season. The junior has seen an uptick in his minutes as of late, which has coincided with an increase in his production. That's translated into a start in Bedlam for the forward, who will look to prove he belongs amongst the starting five.

Returns to action Tuesday Newton (personal) didn't record any stats during Tuesday's win over Sam Houston State.

Impact The junior returned to action after missing the last seven games due to a personal issue but was a non-factor off the bench.

DNP at Oakland Newton (personal) did not play during Oklahoma State's 91-62 win at Oakland.

Impact Unsurprisingly, Newton needs at least a few more days to grieve. Oklahoma State's next game is at Central Florida on Friday. However, fantasy managers should not be surprised if Newton sits out that matchup too.

Won't play Thursday Newton won't play Thursday night against Southern Illinois while he tends to a personal matter, Jacob Unruh of The Oklahoman reports.

Impact The 6-foot-9 forward will not be available for Thursday's contest versus the Salukis following the recent passing of his father on Monday, per Unruh. His next chance to suit up comes in Sunday's matchup against Oakland.
