Appears off bench Saturday Updating a previous report, O'Bannon logged 19 minutes off the bench Saturday against Texas A&M.

Impact Initial stats were delayed, but O'Bannon did in fact log eight points (2-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 3-5 FT) and four rebounds in the contest. While recent ankle troubles have led O'Bannon to come off the bench -- this time in favor of Taryn Todd -- there's no guarantee that will be the case when the Horned Frogs take the court against Oklahoma State on Wednesday.

DNP against Aggies O'Bannon (ankle) did not take the court Saturday against Texas A&M.

Impact There wasn't a specific report of an injury, but it's presumed O'Bannon is still dealing with ankle trouble that forced him to miss a Nov. 6 contest against Oklahoma. He returned the following game against Providence and put up three points in 18 minutes off the bench, so his absence from the starting five Saturday wasn't initially taken as the senior potentially being ruled out. That ended up being the case, however, with Taryn Todd drawing the start in his stead. O'Bannon's next chance to take the court will be Wednesday against Oklahoma State.

Will try to give it a go O'Bannon (ankle) will try to give it a go in Wednesday's game against Providence, Drew Davison of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

Impact O'Bannon missed Sunday's game against Oklahoma with an ankle injury. It's not clear if he will return to the starting five or if coach Jamie Dixon will employ O'Bannon off the bench.

Not active Sunday O'Bannon isn't active Sunday against Oklahoma due to a left ankle injury, Drew Davison of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.

Impact O'Bannon dealt with an ankle injury last season, and he's apparently banged up once again early in the season. He's currently considered day-to-day, and it's not yet known whether he'll be ready to play Wednesday against Providence.

Will play right away at TCU The NCAA approved O'Bannon's (ankle) request for a waiver last week, making him immediately eligible to compete at TCU, Adam Zagoria of The New York Times reports.

Impact O'Bannon transferred to TCU in January, but since he didn't leave USC with his degree, he needed a waiver from the NCAA in order to compete in 2020-21. With his eligibility having now been resolved, O'Bannon should face no barriers in his effort to secure a spot in the TCU rotation, as coach Jamie Dixon recently told Drew Davison of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram that the 6-foot-6 wing is also "healthy and ready to go" after having dealt with an ankle sprain shortly before leaving USC. O'Bannon appeared in 18 games during an injury-plagued three-year run at USC, averaging 1.8 points in 5.6 minutes per contest. Now that he's healthy again, the redshirt junior should have a clearer path to playing time at TCU, which lost its top scorer from 2019-20, Desmond Bane, to graduation.
