ALLEN FLANIGAN NEWS

Makes season debut Flanigan posted three points (1-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and one assist during Wednesday's win over Murray State.

Impact The junior made his season debut after missing the first 11 games this season due to recovering from Achilles surgery. Flanigan, who 14.3 points across 27 outings with Auburn last season, is ready to make an impact on this year's team.

In uniform Wednesday Flanigan (Achilles) is in uniform for Wednesday's game against Murray State, Nathan King of 247 Sports reports.

Impact It appears Flanigan has a good chance to makes his season debut. He is coming off a big season in 2020-21 in which he averaged 14.3 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.6 assists, and 1.6 three-pointers per contest. Flanigan will likely be on a minutes restriction of some type for the first few games he is back.

Nearing return Auburn head coach Bruce Pearl said Monday that Flanigan (Achilles) could be available for Wednesday's game against Murray State, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Flanigan has yet to play in 2021-22 after undergoing surgery on his right Achilles in September, but the 6-foot-6 forward looks to be on the cusp of making his season debut. If Flanigan gains clearance to play Wednesday, he would likely face a minutes restriction of some sort. He started in all 27 of his appearances for the Tigers last season, averaging 14.3 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.6 three-pointers in 30.5 minutes per contest.

Doesn't appear in Saturday's game Flanigan (Achilles) didn't appear in Saturday's win over Saint Louis.

Impact Flanigan was considered doutbful ahead of Saturday's matchup and was forced to miss yet another game. However, he recently progressed to practicing with contact, and his next chance to suit up will be Wednesday against Murray State.

Making progress but still doubtful Flanigan (Achilles) has advanced to practicing with contact but remains doubtful for Saturday's game against St. Louis, Tom Green of AL.com reports.

Impact Flanigan underwent Achilles surgery in September and was expected to return in mid-December. He appears to be still on approximately that same timeline, though his return may wind up coming in late December assuming he's unable to suit up Saturday.

Impact On a positive note, Flanigan reportedly remains on track in his recovery and should be available for most of conference play if he can avoid setbacks the rest of the way. Given the nature of his injury, the junior will likely be limited for a while even when he's cleared for game action.

Shooting without boot Flanigan (Achilles) was spotted getting shots up without a walking boot on prior to Friday's team scrimmage, Nathan King of 247 Sports reports.

Impact The plan remains for Flanigan to return roughly around the start of conference play in mid-December, and nothing so far suggests that date is out of reach. Despite the missed time, Flanigan was still voted preseason all-conference by SEC coaches, which shows the level of respect he has among his peers. Drafting Flanigan remains a risky play for fantasy managers in SEC leagues, but he's certainly a mid-season waiver wire target worth keeping an eye on.

Aiming for mid-December Flanigan (Achiles) is aiming for a mid-December return, Tom Green of AL.com reports.

Impact This doesn't necessarily change the initial 12-14 week timeline that Flanigan was given after early-September surgery, but the key here is the emphasis on the fact that Flanigan intends to return and contribute this season. In the meantime, look for Devan Cambridge to take on extended minutes at the wing.

Leads team to upset victory Flanigan had 23 points (7-14 FG, 2-5 3PT, 7-11 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and a steal in 36 minutes during Saturday's 77-72 win over Tennessee.

Impact Flanigan had a great bounceback performance after he failed to hit a shot and registered just six points in a loss to Florida on Feb. 23. The 6-6 sophomore stepped up big in the absence of Sharife Cooper (ankle) and topped 20 points for the fifth time this year. Flanigan upped his scoring average to 14.2 points to go along with 5.4 rebounds and three assists in 30.4 minutes per game as he continues to be one of the Tigers' most consistent offensive contributors.
