Strong’s breakout 30-point performance vs LSU highlighted his versatility and scoring ability. Their 10-5 overall record and 1-1 SEC mark underscore improvement compared to last season, with coach Lamont Paris emphasizing pace and perimeter shooting as keys to success.

Wilkinson leads with 17.2 points per game, though he struggled vs Florida. Somto Cyril (9.5 ppg, 6.1 rpg) returns after his ejection, adding interior presence.
