Penn State Nittany Lions team news & key performers
The Nittany Lions, typically known for their sharpshooting, struggled mightily against Illinois, hitting just 30% of their shots from the floor and a meager 17% from beyond the arc. By halftime, they were staring at a 24-point deficit, and their woes deepened when leading scorer Adrian Baldwin Jr. exited with an undisclosed injury late in the first half and did not return. Nick Kern Jr. stepped up in Baldwin's absence, leading the team with 13 points, while Zack Hicks contributed 11 points and celebrated surpassing the 1,000-career-point milestone.
Penn State’s injury concerns remain a significant factor heading into Sunday’s matchup. Puff Johnson, Baldwin Jr., and Hudson Ward are listed as questionable, while Eli Rice is ruled out.
