• Coach Musselman had planned on shuffling the starting lineup after two losses and the Isaiah Joe’s injury forced another change.

• Jalen Harris, who started every game last season, got his first start of the year versus TCU. He dished out a season-high six assists. He was inserted into the lineup to speed up the game, pickup up the TCU guards 3/4 court and his skill in transition.

• Desi Sills came off the bench for the first time this season. He scored 18 points —two shy of his career high — on 7-of-8 shooting from the field and making all three 3-pointers.

• Reggie Chaney got his first start of the season — and third of his career. While he did not have a great first half, he scored six straight for the Hogs early in the second half to make it a 3-point game into a 9-point game.

• Prior to this season, Arkansas did not have the same two players score at least 20 points in back-to-back game since Michael Washington and Courtney Fortson accomplished the feat in 2008-09 versus NC Central and Austin Peay.

• This season, Arkansas has done it twice.
^ The first time, Mason Jones and Isaiah Joe teamed up to do it in three straight games (first time that had happened since Corliss Williamson and Scotty Thurman in 1994-95).
^ Mason Jones and Jimmy Whitt have each scored 20 in each of the last two games.

• FIRST:
^ 12/14/19 Tulsa Joe: 20 / Jones: 41
^ 12/21/19 Valpo Joe: 21 / Jones: 20
^ 12/29/19 at Indiana Joe: 24 / Jones: 21
• CURRENT:
^ 01/22/20 Miss State Whitt: 20 / Jones: 20
^ 01/25/20 TCU Whitt: 20 / Jones: 20
