THE SERIES
Creighton leads the all-time series by a 34-16 margin, while DePaul looks for its first victory over the Bluejays since 2015.

In that game, Layden Blocker had a 25-point, five-rebound performance that featured a career-best five made three-pointers.
SCOUTING CREIGHTON
Creighton (13-11, 7-6 BIG EAST) snapped a three-game skid over the weekend with a last-second victory against Seton Hall, 69-68. Nik Graves hit the game-winning three with 2.5 seconds remaining to play. Isaac Traudt led the Bluejays with 18 points and six rebounds, including six made three-pointers.
As a team, Creighton is one of the nation's best at committing the fewest fouls in addition to leading the BIG EAST with an average of 10 three-pointers per game. Josh Dix is the Bluejays' leading scorer with 11.8 points per game, while Nik Graves ranks sixth in assist-to-turnover ratio with a 2.42.
