LJ Cryer - Anticipates playing this weekend Head coach Scott Drew said Friday that Cryer (back) will play Sunday against Washington State, John Werner of the Waco Tribune-Herald reports.
Impact Cryer was held out of the Bears' previous matchup versus Tarleton State due to a back issue, but he's now in line to limit his absence streak to just one game following coach Drew's comments Friday. The 6-foot-1 guard will likely reclaim his usual starting spot this weekend against the Cougars.

Dale Bonner - Logs 12 points, three steals Bonner racked up 12 points (3-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-5 FT), two rebounds, two assists and three steals over 37 minutes during Tuesday's 80-57 victory over Tarleton State.
Impact Bonner benefited from Adam Flagler (illness) and LJ Cryer (back) being out because of injuries. Both are probable before the Bears host Washington State on Dec. 18. Thus, fantasy managers should not expect Bonner regularly receiving 37 minutes like he did to maximize his latest log.
DECEMBER 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Langston Love - Logs 20 points across 35 minutes Love ended Tuesday's 80-57 win over Tarleton St. with 20 points (7-15 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals across 35 minutes.
Impact Love's latest log is his first to have at least 20 points. He benefited from Adam Flagler (illness) and LJ Cryer (back) being out because of injuries. Though both are probable before the Bears host Washington state on Dec. 18, Love's latest log indicates how good he could play when given at least 30 minutes a game.
DECEMBER 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
LJ Cryer - DNP vs. Tarleton State Cryer (back) did not play during the Bears' 80-57 win Tuesday versus Tarleton State.
Impact An injured back prevented Cryer from participating in the Bears' latest game. He will try to return when they host Washington State on Dec. 18.

Jordan Turner - Makes season debut Turner (wrist) added one point (0-2 FG, 1-2 FT) and two rebounds during Tuesday's win over Tarleton State.
Impact The junior made his season debut after missing the first part of the campaign with a wrist injury. However, the forward was a non-factor off the bench for the Bears on Tuesday.
DECEMBER 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Dale Bonner - Gets starting nod Bonner is in the starting five for Tuesday's game against Tarleton State.
Impact Bonner and Langston Love will move into the starting lineup with Adam Flagler (illness) and LJ Cryer (back) out. Bonner is averaging 5.8 points, 3.8 assists, 2.3 steals and 2.1 rebounds in 22.5 minutes across eight games this season.
DECEMBER 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Langston Love - Starting Tuesday Love is in the starting five Tuesday against Tarleton State.
Impact With Adam Flagler (illness) and LJ Cryer (back) out, Love will make his first career start. The freshman is averaging 6.3 points and 2.3 rebounds this year.
DECEMBER 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
LJ Cryer - Not starting Tuesday night Cryer (back) isn't starting Tuesday night for the Bears.
Impact Cryer had started every other game this season for Baylor, and has been a prolific scorer with 16.5 points-per-game. However, he may be kept out the Bears' game with Tarleton State with a back injury. Possibly in Cryer's absence, Langston Love should see increased minutes.
DECEMBER 6, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Adam Flagler - Out Tuesday Flagler won't play in Tuesday's matchup against Tarleton State due to an illness.
Impact Flagler will miss his first matchup this season after coming down with an illness pregame. Teammate Keyonte George is starting in place of Flagler.

Caleb Lohner - Sold contributions off the bench Lohner totaled six points (3-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal over 19 minutes during Friday's 64-63 victory over Gonzaga.
Impact Lohner once again provided a jump off the bench for Baylor, as his stat line almost exactly matched his season averages across the first eight games of 2022-23. The junior transfer from BYU has averaged 6.3 points, 4. 9 rebounds, 0.6 assists and 1.1 steals across 18 minutes per game. He's also converted an efficient 57.6 percent of his 4.1 field-goal attempts while playing at least 13 minutes in every contest with the Bears.
DECEMBER 3, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Flo Thamba - Eight boards against Zags Thamba contributed two points (1-3 FG), eight rebounds and two blocks over 28 minutes during Friday's 64-63 victory over Gonzaga.
Impact Thamba led the Bears in boards, though the team was still outrebounded 47-32 by the Bulldogs. He also did a solid job slowing down Gonzaga big men Drew Timme and Ben Gregg, as these two combined for just 14 points on 5-of-11 from the field. Thamba leads Baylor with 5.3 rebounds and 1.0 blocks per game, and he should have a chance to put a dominant effort on the boards against Tarleton State on Tuesday.
