• Since Baylor's loss at then-ranked No. 23 Oklahoma, Baylor has won five straight. The stats speak for themselves as BU turned a corner after the loss in Norman.<br>
• From the beginning of the season through the OU loss, BU averaged 74.5 points on 44.5 percent shooting from the floor and a 32.3 mark from deep. Three players averaged double figures: <dfn><b><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><a href="https://baylorbears.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=10009"><span style="color:#154734">NaLyssa
Smith</span></a></span></b></dfn> (21.1), <dfn><b><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><a href="https://baylorbears.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=10723"><span style="color:#154734">Jordan Lewis</span></a></span></b></dfn> (12.1) and <dfn><b><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"><a href="https://baylorbears.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=10014"><span style="color:#154734">Sarah
Andrews</span></a></span></b></dfn><strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif"> </span></strong>(10.6).<br>
• Since then, Baylor is averaging 82.2 points per game, a 7.7 increase. The Bears are also shooting better from the floor (48.9) and have found their rhythm from downtown (46.2 percent). Five players are now averaging double figures: <strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Smith</span></strong> (18.2), <strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Andrews</span></strong> (15.8), <strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Egbo</span></strong> (14.4), <strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Lewis</span></strong> (12.8)
and <strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Asberry</span></strong> (10.0).<br>
• Baylor's assists per game have increased by 3.9 and the turnovers are down 2.9. Over the past five games, 62.6 of BU's buckets have been assisted, compared to 59.3 percent the first 14 games of the season.<br>
• While 3-point numbers are definitely up and the backcourt is receiving due credit, it's the play of <strong><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Egbo</span></strong> that stands out in this shift. The senior is averaging 4.8 more points and 2.3 more
rebounds. Her shooting percentage is up 4.0 percent.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

• 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.<br>
• BU's record for 3-point attempts in a season came in 2013-14 when the Bears attempted 596 3s. <br>
• 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). BU has done so four times this season. <br>
• At Kansas, Baylor nearly set a record with a 14-for-29 display from the perimeter. BU's 14 treys marked the second most in program history.<br>
• Prior to this year, only 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).<br>
