Riley Kugel - Won't play Friday Kugel has been ruled out for Friday's game versus Grambling due to a bruised foot, Brandon Carroll of AllGatorsonFN reports.
Impact Kugel will miss his first game of the season Friday due to his foot injury. Zyon Pullin will replace him in the starting five. Kugel's next chance to suit up is against Quinnipiac on Dec. 30.

Zyon Pullin - Starting Friday Pullin will start in Friday's matchup with Grambling State, Brandon Carroll of Sports Illustrated reports.
Impact With Riley Kugel (foot) ruled out for the contest, Pullin is set to make his third start of the season for the Gators. In his two previous starts, the 6-foot-4 senior averaged 14.5 points, 3.5 rebounds, five assists and 1.5 steals on 33 minutes per game.

Aleks Szymczyk - Return likely pushed back Szymczyk (foot) is expected to be available again after Christmas, per Kevin Brockway of The Gainesville Sun.
Impact Initially expected to be out until December, Szymczyk may be unavailable for the whole month. Now, it is likely the earliest he can play again is Florida's game against Quinnipiac on Dec. 30. Even then, that return date is not a certainty, as Szymczyk still remains without a concrete timetable for his return.

Micah Handlogten - Getting back on track Handlogten posted eight points (2-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 3-5 FT) and 10 rebounds in 19 minutes during Saturday's 87-76 victory over Richmond.
Impact Handlogten missed back-to-back games to close out November due to an ankle injury, and he was eased back into action in his return, logging just four minutes Dec. 5 against Merrimack. Saturday was a different story, however, as the 7-1 sophomore center returned to the starting lineup and logged his second-highest rebounding total of the young season. Even before the injury, his offensive output left much to be desired, as Handlogten averaged less than six field-goal attempts over the season's first five games. There appears to still be a bit of an adjustment period for the Marshall transfer who put up 7.6 points and 9.8 rebounds per contest a season ago.

Micah Handlogten - Limited in return Handlogten chipped in two rebounds across four minutes during Tuesday's 77-57 victory over Merrimack.
Impact Handlogten had missed back-to-back games due to an ankle injury, and while he did return Tuesday, it's clear the team is easing the sophomore center back into action. He saw his lowest minutes total of any game outside of the injury, and didn't even attempt a single shot. Fantasy managers will undoubtedly be hopeful he sees more action Saturday against Richmond. If not, look for Tyrese Samuel to continue seeing extended run at the five.
