Riley Kugel

ANALYSIS
Kugel connected on five triples en route to a team-high 19 points during Monday's opening night victory. The transfer from Mississippi State who also spent time at Florida has been a solid performer mostly off the bench across his three previous seasons but is now finally set for a major role with the Knights. Of note is Kugel's three-point percentage, which was at just 33.3-percent last season. If he can lift that percentage near 40-percent, he could be set up to finish among the leading scorers in the Big 12.
