Daniel Jacobsen seemingly can’t miss a shot, with his 19 consecutive makes the most in Purdue’s esteemed history.The 7-foot-4 center will look to continue his streak when the No. 1 Boilermakers visit Rutgers in Piscataway, N.J., in the Big Ten opener for both teams on Tuesday night.Jacobsen last missed a shot on Nov. 16 against Akron when his first attempt of the game was off the mark.He made his last four against the Zips, all three versus Memphis and all four against then-No. 15. Texas Tech before excelling with an 8-for-8 effort while scoring a career-high 24 points in Friday’s 109-62 rout of visiting Eastern Illinois.During the contest, Jacobsen passed the mark of 15 straight shots knocked down by George Faerber in March 1971.”Things get easy for him when he can catch lobs and move freely,” Boilermakers coach Matt Painter said. “But when guys are being really physical with him, he still has to be able to make those plays.”Jacobsen missed most of his freshman campaign as he sustained a fractured tibia just one minute into the second game of the season against Northern Kentucky.Now he’s healthy and playing a key role off the bench for Purdue (7-0) by averaging 10.3 points and 5.0 rebounds in 15.7 minutes of action.”I just want to play as hard as I can and take advantage of every opportunity,” Jacobsen said after his breakout performance against Eastern Illinois.Jacobsen leads Purdue with 17 blocked shots and his stellar 73.7% accuracy rate from the field is second on the team behind starting big man Oscar Cluff (73.8%). Cluff is averaging 11.7 points and 10.1 rebounds.All-American point guard Braden Smith had 10 assists against Eastern Illinois to move into second place in Big Ten history with 821 in his career. He passed former Michigan State star Mateen Cleaves (816 from 1996-2000).Michigan State’s Cassius Winston is the record holder with 890 from 2016-20. Smith is averaging 13.0 points and 9.0 assists this season.
