Shanquan Hemphill - Remains out of lineup Wednesday Hemphill (rest) is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against Bradley, Jordan Majewski of SB Nation reports.
Impact Hemphill has missed the last two games due to precautionary reasons and it appears he is unlikely to return for Wednesday's tilt with Bradley. If he can't go, his next opportunity to return will be Saturday against Northern Iowa.

Shanquan Hemphill - Sitting out Wednesday Hemphill (rest) won't play Wednesday against Illinois State, Jim Benson of The Bloomington Pantagraph reports.
Impact Hemphill won't be available Wednesday due to "precautionary reasons" according to a team spokesman. The Bulldogs are just being cautious after Hemphill suffered a foot injury at the end of last season. Barring any setbacks, he should return for Saturday's game against Evansville.

Shanquan Hemphill - Back in action Hemphill (undisclosed) had five points (1-6 FG, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, one block and one steal over 23 minutes during Sunday's 61-56 loss to Missouri State.
Impact Hemphill missed a Dec. 28 contest against NAIA school Mount Marty after logging just three minutes in the prior contest, but no specifics on the injury were ever disclosed. He was back in the starting five Sunday for a mildly productive outing, at least, though the Bulldogs lost a tough road matchup to fall to 1-1 in MVC play.

Shanquan Hemphill - Logs DNP Tuesday Hemphill (undisclosed) did not take the court Tuesday against Mount Marty (NAIA).
Impact Hemphill has been the starting small forward for Drake's first 13 games of the season, but he logged just three minutes in a Dec. 22 contest against Chicago State, suggesting a potential injury may be in play. The Bulldogs went with a slightly bigger lineup and started senior Darnell Brodie in Hemphill's stead, which is an alignment that could be considered if Hemphill is forced to miss additional time. Drake's next game on the schedule is at Missouri State on Jan. 2.

Tremell Murphy - Back in starting five Murphy (illness) is starting Wednesday's game against Chicago State.
Impact Murphy missed the previous game due to a non-COVID illness but has recovered quickly and has retaken his usual spot among the starting five. Murphy should handle his usual role for the Bulldogs barring something unforeseen.

Tremell Murphy - Sits due to non-COVID illness Murphy didn't play in Sunday's game versus Tennessee-Martin due to a non-COVID illness, Micahel Admire of Drake Sports Media reports.
Impact Murphy has been a consistent presence in the starting five since he stepped foot on campus, so his absence was certainly a noticeable one for the Bulldogs. Given the nature of his omission from the lineup, Murphy could be back in action as soon as Wednesday against Saint Louis. The senior is averaging 11.1 points and 5.6 boards per game when healthy.
