"We just can't give him 43 points," guard D.J. Gay said. "That's what we're going to have to go and try and figure out. He's the heart and soul of that team, but they do have other great players on their team. We did a good job on Jackson Emery and (Brandon) Davies, they played well. Those are guys that can step up at any given moment and take over a game as well. I don't know if it's taking care of everybody else and letting Jimmer do Jimmer, or try to stop Jimmer and have everybody else step up."

Fisher said Fredette's presence makes his teammates dangerous, too.

"When he's on the floor, everybody else has a little more opening because there's more than one set of eyes on him. He's very, very good, and he knows it," Fisher said.
