- Lee has 980 career points. If he reaches the 1,000-point mark, he will be the 49th Commodore to join the elite 1,000-point club.
- Lee claimed SEC Player of the Week honors after his performance against Buffalo, becoming the first Commodore to win the award since Jeff Roberson on Feb. 19, 2018. Lee joins Scotty Pippen Jr. as weekly honorees from the SEC this season. Pippen Jr. was named the SEC Freshman of the Week on Nov. 25 when he averaged 17 points, 5.5 assists and 2.5 rebounds per game in two Commodore wins over Austin Peay and South Carolina State, respectively.
- Scotty Pippen Jr. is ranked in the top 10 in the SEC in assists/game (8th, 4.5), free throws made (6th, 58), free throws attempted (6th, 81), and assist-to-turnover ratio (4th, 1.91).

- The Commodores are a youthful bunch - in the last game against Texas A&M, Vanderbilt started three true freshmen (Pippen Jr., Disu, Wright), a redshirt sophomore (Obinna), and a junior (Lee).
- Nesmith scored 34 points twice this season against UNC Wilmington on Dec. 21 and earlier this season at Richmond on Nov. 14. Nesmith’s performance against the Spiders was the most points by a Vanderbilt player since Shan Foster vs. Miss. State (3/5/08), and the most points by a Vanderbilt player on the road since Billy McCaffrey at Georgia (35, 2/24/93). Nesmith was the first Vanderbilt player since Shan Foster in 2008 to score 30 or more points in multiple games in a season.
- New head coach Jerry Stackhouse is the 28th men’s basketball coach in the history of Vanderbilt basketball. He is the first African American Commodore men’s basketball head coach and is one of two current African American head coaches in the Southeastern Conference (Cuonzo Martin, Missouri).
