No longer with program Baker-Mazara is no longer a member of the USC basketball team, per Jeff Borzello of ESPN.com.

Impact The news comes as a major surprise as the reason for his departure has yet to be specified. The 6-foot-7 senior has been one of the top players in the country for the Trojans this season, averaging 18.5 points and 4.2 rebounds per game across 26 contests. As he was already a sixth-year senior, the news likely means Baker-Mazara has played his final collegiate game. Terrance Williams will likely be the recipient of an expanded role in Baker-Mazara's absence.

USC’s Chad Baker-Mazara finishes falling-away layup vs. Nebraska

FEBRUARY 28 • FOX SPORTS

Exits early with injury Baker-Mazara didn't play in the final 16:59 of Saturday's 82-67 loss to Nebraska because of an injury he sustained on a fall in the first half, Ryan Kartje of the LA Times reports.

Impact According to USC head coach Eric Musselman, Baker-Mazara informed the Trojans' staff that he wasn't able to play the rest of the game due to an unspecified injury that occurred when Baker-Mazara fell to the hardwood while attempting a block in the first half. Baker-Mazara was subbed out with 16:59 left in the second half and did not return. Before departing, Baker-Mazara generated 14 points (4-9 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound, one assist, one steal and two blocks over 19 minutes. He'll have a few days to recover before USC visits Washington on Wednesday.

Back to regular self Baker-Mazara logged 25 points (8-16 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 4-7 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 34 minutes during Tuesday's 81-62 loss to UCLA.

Impact Baker-Mazara returned last Saturday from a three-game absence forced by a knee injury, and while he came off the bench, he still managed to tally an efficient 21 points in 23 minutes. He was back to his high-scoring ways with a regular minutes allotment Tuesday, in addition to posting his best rebounding total of Big Ten play. Unfortunately, Baker-Mazara and the Trojans have now lost four games in a row, potentially putting them on the wrong side of the NCAA Tournament bubble, at least for the time being.
