John Newman - Scores 20 in upset win Newman racked up 20 points (8-12 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-5 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and two steals over 32 minutes during Tuesday's 81-77 OT victory over TCU.

Impact Newman combined with backcourt-mate DaVeon Thomas to score 41 points Tuesday in leading Cincinnati to the upset victory. The senior guard had struggled to start the Big 12 campaign, scoring just 16 points in the first three games of the conference season on 6-for-16 shooting. However, Tuesday was a season-best effort for Newman who shot 66.7% from the field on 12 shot attempts while draining 2-for-3 from behind the arc. After posting double-figures in six of the first nine games, Tuesday marked just his second such outing over the last eight contests.

Jamille Reynolds - Not starting Saturday Reynolds is not in the starting lineup to face BYU on Saturday.

Impact The Bearcats are switching things up in the frontcourt to face BYU, and Reynolds will come off the bench in this one while Daniel Skillings gets the starting nod. Reynolds is averaging 8.3 points and 5.7 rebounds per game across three outings off the bench in 2023-24.

CJ Fredrick - Won't play Friday Fredrick will miss Friday's game against Evansville due to a hamstring injury, Keegan Nickoson of 247Sports reports.

Impact Fredrick played in the team's final game before the holiday break and logged 33 minutes in the contest, but it appears the issue is still bothering him. The senior's next opportunity to rejoin the action surfaces Jan. 6 against BYU in Big 12 play.

DECEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Simas Lukosius - Starting Friday Lukosius (shoulder) will start Friday's game against Evansville, Neil Meyer of Sports Illustrated reports.

Impact Lukosious was expected to give it a go Friday, per an earlier report, and his presence in the starting lineup suggests he'll line up for a regular workload in this one. The junior enters the night averaging 8.6 points, 3.2 assists and 2.6 boards over 23.9 minutes per game.

DECEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Aziz Bandaogo - Ruled out against Evansville Bandaogo (back) has been ruled out Friday against Evansville, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Bandago had been on a solid run prior to injury, averaging 9.4 points and 9.5 rebounds over a span of five games. Friday will mark his third consecutive absence, and the Bearcats have another week off on the schedule afterwards, which will hopefully allow the seven-footer the time he needs to get healthy. In Bandaogo's stead, look for Viktor Lakhin to see more run, while Simas Lukosius (ankle) is also expected to suit up and could see minutes in a smaller lineup.

Jamille Reynolds - Four points in season debut Reynolds logged four points (1-5 FG, 2-2 FT) and two rebounds over eight minutes during Saturday's 82-68 loss to Dayton.

Impact Reynolds finally has clearance to take the court after his eligibility was in doubt to begin the season, but it looks like he may be limited to a depth role, as Viktor Lakhin and Aziz Bandaogo have most of the frontcourt minutes locked down for the Bearcats.

Jamille Reynolds - New hope for eligibility Reynolds' eligibility ruling for the 2023-24 season could change in the near future, as the NCAA said Wednesday that it would no longer prevent multi-time undergrad athletes from p...

Impact This has the potential to be a massive ruling for Reynolds and the long list of other athletes in his situation who had initially been denied eligibility for the 2023-24 season. Cincinnati already has a deep frontcourt featuring Viktor Lakhin and recently-cleared transfer Aziz Bandaogo, but the possibility of Reynolds getting cleared as well could make the position group one of the deepest in the conference.
