Eemeli Yalaho - Doesn't play in Tourney exit Yalaho (upper body) didn't play in Saturday's loss to Florida.

Impact As expected, Yalaho didn't suit up Saturday, so he had to see the Red Raiders' elimination from outside the court.

Darrion Williams - Great performance in tourney exit Williams ended Saturday's 84-79 loss to Florida with 23 points (9-18 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, one assist and three steals in 31 minutes.

Impact Williams closed out a strong run through the NCAA Tournament by leading Texas Tech with 23 points as their season came to a close just five points short of their second ever appearance in the Final Four. The first-team All-Big 12 performer, who hit the two biggest shots of the season for the Red Raiders during the Sweet 16, recorded at least 20 points in three of four contests during the tournament, averaging 21.0 points, 7.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 2.0 steals across 32.0 minutes. Williams retains one more year of eligibility should he decide to return for his senior season.

Impact Toppin closed out his stellar sophomore season by recording his 19th double-double, though it wasn't quite enough as the Red Raiders fell just short of their second ever Final Four appearance. The All-American finished with averages of 18.2 points, 9.4 rebounds and 1.5 blocks across 27.3 minutes per game. He now faces a decision during the offseason between entering the NBA Draft as a possible first-round prospect or returning to Texas Tech for another season.

Chance McMillian - Provides spark off bench McMillian finished Saturday's 84-79 loss to Florida with 14 points (5-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and one assist across 26 minutes.

Impact McMillian (upper body) came off the bench and played a big role in his return following a four-game absence, seeing 26 minutes of action while contributing 14 points. The senior guard, who was named to the All-Big 12 second team, had missed six of the previous 10 games while averaging just 8.3 points across 26.8 minutes during the four games he played during that stretch after recording 15.1 points across his first 26 contests. While his return provided a spark, it was not quite enough as Texas Tech gave up a late nine-point lead and fell one game short of their second ever trip to the Final Four.
