BACK AT IT
• No. 14 Baylor Women's Basketball returns to the court with its third-straight Big 12 road game, after a pair of games were postponed due to health and safety protocols.
• The Bears are 34-8 all-time against Kansas with a 13-5 mark at Allen Fieldhouse.
• NaLyssa Smith<https://baylorbears.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=10009> and Queen Egbo<https://baylorbears.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=10005> are coming off big performances. Smith logged 30 points in Norman, while Egbo finished with a double-double of 16 points and 10 rebounds.
• Ja'Mee Asberry<https://baylorbears.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=10724> hit the 1,000-career point mark.

WALKING DOUBLE-DOUBLE
• NaLyssa Smith<https://baylorbears.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=10009> is second in the country with 11 double-doubles on the season.
• During the streak, Smith has five games with a minimum of 15 rebounds. She leads the Big 12 in rebounds per game (12.6).

LET IT FLY
• The calendar hadn't even flipped to December yet before the Bears tied for second in program history with 13 3-pointers made in their blowout win over Morehead State (11/30).
• Baylor's program record for triples made came on Dec. 18, 2019 against Arkansas State when Juicy Landrum caught fire and set an NCAA record with 14 triples. Besides that record-setting performance, BU hadn't drained more than a dozen shots from deep since 2011.
• BU's record for 3-point attempts in a season came in 2013-14 when the Bears attempted 596 3s.
• From that season to 2020-21, Baylor made 10 or more 3-pointers in a game only five times across a total of 281 games (1.78 percent).
• This season alone - in Nicki Collen<https://baylorbears.com/staff.aspx?staff=662>'s new offensive system - the Bears are letting it fly from the perimeter.
• Prior to this season, ony 14 Bears had made six or more 3s in a game. Two of them had done it multiple times (Makenzie Robertson, 2012, 2014) and Jennifer King (1990, 1991, 1993).
