MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) Markquis Nowell scored 22 points and dished eight assists as Kansas State Wildcats stormed into the week-long break for semester finals by rolling past Green Bay Phoenix 82-64 on Sunday.
Ismael Massoud had a perfect day shooting for the Wildcats, hitting all five of his shots from the field, one 3-pointer, four from 2-point range, and all three shots from the line. Mark Smith added 14 points and grabbed 10 rebounds.
The Wildcats (6-3) rebounded from their first home court loss by shooting a crisp 55% from the field (28 of 51), including 11 of 21 from beyond the 3-point arc, and converted 15 of 17 from the line.
Kansas State got back starting point guard Nijel Pack, who suffered a concussion in practice Dec. 4 and missed two games - a win over Wichita State and a one-point loss to Marquette. Pack scored six points with a rebound and an assist.
Japannah Kellogg III scored 15 points and grabbed six rebounds to lead the Phoenix (2-8), who have yet to win a road game. Kamari McGee added 14 points.
