Despite averaging 18.7 points, 6.3 rebounds per game and shooting 60% from the floor, Purdue's Trey Kaufman-Renn is not a finalist for the Karl Malone Award.

The fourth-year big man collected 25 points, seven rebounds and four assists as the Boilermakers won their fifth straight Big Ten road game.

The game was tied at 41 when Smith and Loyer hit back-to-back 3-pointers in a 30-second span, starting the key run for the Boilermakers. Purdue made 8 of its first 9 shots in the second half, including 5 of 5 on 3-pointers.
