Nils Machowski

ANALYSIS
Machowski received extra playing time on Tuesday, playing at least 16 minutes for just the second time since Dec. 6. He received some crunch-time minutes, delivering a couple of late triples with the second coming with just 10 seconds on the clock to cut the deficit to two as UCF made a desperate attempt to complete a big comeback. Machowski had also received 16 minutes of court time two games ago against Oklahoma, though he was much more productive during Tuesday's action. Outside of those two games, Machowski had not seen more than six minutes on the court since prior to the start of the conference slate.
