The first batch of holiday tournaments have wrapped up and the conference schedules are starting to get going, meaning that the core of the college basketball season is beginning to get underway.

And now that teams are shaking away most early-season jitters at this point, it means that we’re bound to see our share of wild statlines, too.

• Basketball Video Game Numbers: College Hoops' Craziest Stats of the Week

Video Game Numbers, after debuting during the college football season, made its move to the hardwood last week, when we highlighted some of the top men’s and women’s performances of the week from all three NCAA divisions.

It’s another loaded-on-tap week for the second hoops edition of Video Game Numbers, and from the top NBA prospect to the wide world of D-III, all levels of the game are represented here.

Here’s a look back at college basketball’s Video Game Numbers from the first week of December:

NOTE: Stats are for the week of Dec. 1-7. 

NCAA MBB Statlines:

Division I: Cooper Flagg, G/F, Duke

Having dealt with massive expectations since winning Maine’s Gatorade Player of the Year honor as a high school freshman, all Flagg seems to do is live up to the hype and more as the current widely-projected No. 1 pick for the 2025 NBA Draft.

Flagg had a huge week as No. 4 Duke first got a signature win inside Cameron Indoor Stadium last Wednesday against No. 2 Auburn, with the freshman scoring 22 points and pulling down 11 rebounds for a double-double as the Blue Devils won 84-78 on national television in what could be a preview of a later showdown deep into the NCAA Tournament bracket.

His 20-point, 12-rebound performance in Duke’s Atlantic Coast Conference-opening win over Louisville on Sunday just missed the cutoff for this week’s edition of Video Game Numbers, but something must be said for the fact that Flagg has not turned the ball over in either of his past two games — a wild stat considering that Flagg is still just a freshman prone to mistakes and that the Blue Devils, as they usually do, have a target on their backs as a national title contender and get teams’ best shots.

Flagg is as high-level of a talent as it gets, but his ability to be seemingly unfazed by the pressure surrounding him — like it’s someone else controlling him — is what helps get him a spot on this week’s edition of Video Game Numbers.

Division II: Jack Browder, G, Carson-Newman

Good luck to whichever players are assigned to guard Browder for the near future, because the Eagle nicknamed “Junkyard” has been unstoppable the past couple of weeks.

Browder became the first Carson-Newman player this century to score at least 30 points in three consecutive games, with his most recent two outings (in a loss at UVA-Wise and a win against Limestone) falling into this week’s period of consideration for Video Game Numbers. A former All-South Atlantic Conference Third Team choice, odds are that a lot more accolades are in store for the sharpshooting Browder if he continues having nights like the ones he’s been having recently.

The Cavaliers spoiled Carson-Newman from picking up a road win last Wednesday, but they didn’t stop Browder from making a monster impact as he dropped a season-high 36 points — paired with 16 rebounds for a double-double, if that wasn’t enough — and had a perfect 4 for 4 clip from 3-point range. The Eagles then got back on track against Limestone a few nights later as Browder once again stole the show, piling up 30 points on a near-perfect 9-for-10 shooting as Carson-Newman recovered for a 98-89 win at home to get to 5-2 in SAC play. 

Both the league’s second-leading scorer (21.5 points per game) and leading rebounder (8.8 per game), Browder is going to cause a lot of trouble for the rest of the SAC the rest of the way, and his recent surge may only be the start of a truly special season.

Jack Browder is unreal 😳

Division III: Bruce Saintilus, G, Clark

The senior has been a problem for Clark’s foes for three years now as he’s averaged at least 15 points per game in every season, but his game has gone up another level on the distribution ends this year as he’s evolved into an efficient passer.

In the Cougars’ back-to-back wins to open New England Women’s and Men’s Athletic Conference play last week against Wheaton (Massachusetts) and Salve Regina, Saintilus averaged 22.0 points and 9.5 assists per night for the week as Clark lit up the scoreboard in both games, scoring 100 and 91 against each opponent, respectively. 

The Wheaton game last Wednesday saw Saintilus drop a 20-point, 11-assist double-double in which he only needed nine shots from the floor to reach that scoring total, knocking down a trio of 3-pointers and going a perfect 7 for 7 from the free throw line in the process, as well. 

Then, three days later against Salve Regina, Saintilus got right back to work again on putting the ball in the basket and making sure his teammates got a fair share, too. He finished with a game-high 24 points in the Cougars’ NEWMAC home opener against the Seahawks, dishing out eight more assists to boot as he flirted with another double-double — all while swiping away a season-best three steals on the defensive end, as well.

NCAA WBB Statlines:

Division I: Serena Sundell, G, Kansas State

Sundell and the 13th-ranked Wildcats played three games this past week, all wins in a strong bounce-back for K-State after it lost to Duke on Thanksgiving week in the Ball Dawgs Classic (streamed on FloCollege). 

And Sundell saved her best performance of the week — and why she’s on this week’s list — for last.

Sundell started her week with a couple of fine, but otherwise unremarkable outings against Central Arkansas and Eastern Illinois, putting up 17 points with seven assists against UCA and trading in getting involved in the Wildcats’ scoring (four points) for being their floor general (eight assists) instead against EIU. Then came the game against South Carolina Upstate last Thursday.

K-State as a whole could’ve been a nominee on Video Game Numbers for its 110-24 beatdown of the Spartans, its largest margin of victory in program history. But Sundell alone gets the nod for putting up a ridiculous 26-point, 13-assist, and 10-rebound triple-double in 32 minutes of play against Upstate, the Wildcats’ first triple-double since 2009 and the fifth in program history. 

The 13 assists tied a single-game program record, and her 26 points were the most ever in a K-State triple-double in an incredible display, part of one of the best individual outings in all of college basketball this season. Also, it was a night that drove the point home that center Ayoka Lee might not be the only top-tier WNBA prospect playing for the Wildcats right now, too.

Division II: Emilee Weakley, F, Frostburg State

The leading scorer in D-II as of Tuesday afternoon (29.7 points per game), who hit the 1,000-point mark for her career as a sophomore, hasn’t stopped at all as the reigning Mountain East Conference Player of the Year is looking to finish as the nation’s scoring champion for the second time in her career as she did as a freshman in 2022-23.

The Bobcats’ two wins this past week came against Charleston (West Virginia) and West Virginia State, where against the former Weakley was “only” held to 23 points — a season-low — as she went 10 for 22 from the field.

Then against WVSU at home last Saturday, Weakley got back on track in a big way.

Weakley dropped 40 points on the Yellow Jackets for the fourth 40-piece of her career at Frostburg State, going 14-for-24 shooting with a 2 for 5 mark from 3-point distance and a 10 for 11 stretch at the free throw line, doing what she could to pile it on for the Bobcats in their dominant 98-73 win.

Just 41 points away from hitting 1,500 for her career, Weakley looks to be on a collision course toward breaking a plethora of program records if she keeps up the pace. At a career-high 38.1 minutes per night through nine games, as well, she’s going to have plenty of opportunities to get her fill on a game-by-game basis.

Division III: Sara Booher, C, Grinnell

Picking up a triple-double will probably put you in good shape to make a Video Game Numbers list, but the way Booher did it against Knox last Tuesday was particularly nutty.

The 6-foot-3 Wisconsin native helped the Pioneers open up Midwest Conference play with a bang, becoming the women’s team’s first player to secure a triple-double in over three decades with a ridiculous 23-point, 20-rebound, 10-block outing in a 67-65 victory over the Prairie Fire — and Booher did it all in just 25 minutes, too. 

Having notched Grinnell’s first triple-double since 1993, Booher is one of only five D-III women’s players to have recorded a triple-double so far this season (as of Tuesday afternoon) and the only one to do it with 10 blocks, with her massive rebounding total also being a season-high.

That all-around effort was more than enough for Booher (who also competes in track and field at Grinnell) to earn a spot on this week’s list, with the nation’s leader in blocks adding two more swats (and seven more rebounds) in the Pioneers’ loss last Saturday to Lawrence. She has at least two blocks in all 10 games this season and has brought down double-digit rebounds in six games, accounting for five double-doubles along the way.
