25 Wright State 15-4 -4 The Raiders' comeback attempt in the final four minutes against UIC was impressive, but it exposed one of the team's flaws: Wright State only shoots 66.1% from the free-throw line on the season. That figure has gotten worse in Horizon League play, as the Raiders rank dead-last in the conference at 61.3%. vs. Cleveland State (1/16), vs. Youngstown State (1/18)

Tanner Holden, Wing, Wright State

Holden has eased into a big role on another flying Raiders team. Alongside Bill Wampler, Loudon Love and Cole Gentry, Holden has emerged as a reliable scorer and rebounder (10.8 PPG, 6.6 RPG). He’s been a key part of Scott Nagy’s rotation on a team that figures to push its win total into the 20’s. A hot start bottomed into an early-season lull, but Holden has found his confidence again, and has scored in double figures in over half of the Raiders’ league games.
