John Newman

ANALYSIS
Newman posted his second double-double of the season, helping the Bearcats take down the sixth-seeded Jayhawks. The senior guard contributed 12 points on the night, shooting 50% from the field and from three while trailing only Dan Skillings on the Cincinnati scoring leaderboard. Newman, who has averaged 12.4 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.2 steals over the last five games, will look to post a similar effort during the Bearcats' quarterfinal matchup with Baylor, scheduled to take place Thursday evening.
