AGUEK AROP NEWS

DNP Sunday Arop did not play in Sunday's narrow 65-63 win over Nevada.

Impact The senior was able to suit up but ultimately didn't appear in the game while dealing with his nagging hip issue. Arop will likely enter Wednesday's matchup with San Jose State without an injury designation, though it is possible he sits again if the hip doesn't calm down in time. If anymore absences come, Josh Tomaic will continue to play a larger role in the SDSU frontcourt.

Logs minimal action Arop (head) played five empty minutes Thursday versus Boise State.

Impact The fact that Arop took the floor at all is a good sign after he missed practice Thursday due to a recurrence of vertigo. He may eventually overcome the issue but may have to contend with it occasionally through at least the rest of the 2020-21 season.

Misses practice Wednesday Arop didn't participate in practice Wednesday due to a recurrence of vertigo, Jon Schaeffer of XTRA 1360 reports.

Logs seven minutes in return Arop (illness) had four points (1-1 FG, 2-2 FT) in seven minutes of action during Saturday's 75-57 win over Fresno State.

Impact Arop has missed a handful of games this season because of vertigo but was able to return in a limited fashion Sunday.

Surprise scratch Thursday Arop (illness) won't be avaiable for Thursday's game against Fresno State, Jon Schaeffer of Xtra1360 reports.

Impact Arop continues to deal with vertigo, as the illness has cost him a few games this season. The junior has functioned in a reserve role for the past few games, so his absence won't affect much from a fantasy perspective.

FEBRUARY 18, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Logs 19 minutes against SJSU Arop had four points (2-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT), six rebounds and an assist across 19 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's 77-55 victory over San Jose State.

Impact Arop continues to cope with the symptoms of vertigo, but Wednesday was the most minutes he's been able to log since Jan. 14.

The fantasy production just may be inconsistent moving forward.

Efficient 11 minutes Arop had six points (3-4 FG, 0-2 FT), five rebounds and a steal across 11 minutes in Monday's 85-54 victory over San Jose State.

Impact Arop has made just one start for the Aztecs since the calendar turned to 2021, as he was bounced from the starting five prior to Mountain West play and recently missed two games with a non-COVID-related illness. While the junior forward is available once again, it's difficult to gauge what type of minutes workload he'll see compared to earlier in the season. Terrell Gomez has worked his way into the starting five in his absence, and the Aztecs have won all five games in which he's started.
