Against Creighton: Tuesday will be the 11th meeting all-time between Creighton and NDSU, with the Bluejays winning all 10 previous games. The two schools met in a hastily scheduled contest on Nov. 29 last season, with No. 11-ranked Creighton winning 69-58. Rocky Kreuser scored 16 points in that game, and the 11-point final margin was NDSU's closest against a nationally ranked opponent since falling 75-65 at No. 10 USC on Nov. 13, 2017.
 
Rocky's Record Watch: Fifth-year senior Rocky Kreuser has played 131 career games – one shy of tying and two away from breaking Mike Felt's (2009-14) NDSU career record of 132 games played.
 
Offense Kicks In: The Bison shot a season-best 52 percent and scored a season-high 90 points in Saturday's 90-73 win over Idaho.
 
Now We're Cooking: Jarius Cook drained a career-high five three-pointers in NDSU's win over Tarleton State on Nov. 22. He scored 17 points in the game for the second-highest output of his career, trailing only his 22 points at TCU on Dec. 22 of last season.
 
Great Late: Jarius Cook is shooting 50 percent from beyond the arc in the second half this season.
 
Defensive Battle: Last Monday's 54-53 win over Tarleton was the lowest scoring NDSU Basketball game since the 49-47 loss at Kansas City on Jan. 30 of last season.
 
Kallman Collected: Graduate transfer Andrew Kallman owns a 10-to-2 assist-to-turnover ratio this season.
 
Rebound Machine: Freshman forward Andrew Morgan leads NDSU with an average of 15.2 rebounds per 40 minutes this season.
 
Veteran Squad: The Bison returned 94 percent of their scoring and 93 percent of their minutes played from the 2020-21 season.
 
Coaching Numbers: David Richman ranks fourth in NDSU history with 140 wins. He needs one more victory to tie and two to pass Bob Lowe (141 wins, 1933-46) for third on the NDSU all-time list.
                Richman's .611 winning percentage is the fourth-best by a Bison coach since 1930.
 
Rocky's Rankings: Kreuser's current rankings on the NDSU career charts:
•             2nd in games played (131)
•             6th in blocked shots (94)
•             8th in free throw percentage (.821)
•             11th in three-pointers made (163)
•             15th in rebounds (625)
•             16th in games started (99)
