Jawun Evans: Modest production in loss
Evans logged four points (1-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, four assists and two steals across 21 minutes during Wednesday's 121-113 loss to the Wisconsin Herd.
Evans logged modest tallies in three statistical categories but wasn't very productive on the scoreboard. Wednesday's appearance was his second with the Cleveland Charge since he was traded to the team in early January. As expected, Evans will be a backup option behind point guard RJ Nembhard and should continue to see limited chances. He sat out all but two of seven games across that span.

Jawun Evans: Returns to starting lineup
Evans (hip) returned to the starting lineup Saturday, finishing the contest with 11 points (2-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), nine assists, three rebounds and two steals.

Still, five turnovers isn't a great figure for a point guard and highlighted a sloppy night for both teams considering Rio Grande and Northern Arizona combined for 40 giveaways.
