Out until conference games Ward is out for the remainder of Iowa State's non-conference schedule due to a foot injury, per Travis Hines of The Des Moines Register,

Impact Iowa State's 2023-24 team begins its conference schedule at Oklahoma on Jan. 6. By the time Ward is healthy again, he will have sat out at least 10 of the Cyclones' games. Jan. 6 is also the earliest date Ward can return, so he may be out longer if more time is needed.

Leaves game with injury Ward left the game against Fordham in the first half with a leg injury and has not yet returned, Wayne Epps Jr. of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.

Impact Ward has filled in as a starter for most of the games this season, so if he has to miss significant time that would be a big blow to VCU's rotation. It's not clear who would get extra time if Ward misses extended time.

Four steals off bench in return Ward totaled four points (2-4 FG), five rebounds, one assist and four steals over 14 minutes during Wednesday's 66-46 win over Florida Atlantic.

Impact Ward was making his return from a two-game absence due to an ankle injury. He was effective despite playing limited minutes off the bench. Ward should assume his starting spot back sooner rather than later.

Looks set for return Wednesday Ward (ankle) is warming up and appears set to rejoin the action Wednesday versus FAU, Wayne Epps Jr. of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.

Impact After missing the past two games, Ward figures to retake his spot in the rotation for the Rams Wednesday, though it's unclear as to what extent that will be. Ward started all of the eight games he appeared in so far this season, though the return of Adrian Baldwin could complicate the starting five equation.

Considered day-to-day Ward (ankle) returned to practice Tuesday and is listed as day-to-day, Wayne Epps Jr. of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.

Impact Ward has missed the last two games with an ankle injury. It appears he is getting closer to a return, but it's unclear if he will be ready for Wednesday's game against FAU.

Out again Saturday Ward (ankle) will not be available for Saturday's game against Old Dominion, Wayne Epps Jr. of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.

Impact Ward missed Wednesday's action due to a bone bruise in his ankle. It was his first missed game of the season but he apparently has been playing through the issue for a while and aggravated it last weekend. It's unclear how long he could be sidelined while tending to the injury. Adrian Baldwin figures to remain in the starting lineup in his place after making his season debut Wednesday.

Managing ankle injury Ward didn't play Wednesday against Jacksonville State due to a bone bruise in his ankle, Wayne Epps Jr. of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.

Impact Coach Mike Rhoades said Wednesday that Ward's ankle has been bothering him for some time, and he aggravated the issue in Saturday's win over Campbell. The junior has been able to run with the injury but has been unable to push off. It's not yet clear whether he'll be available Saturday against Old Dominion.

Not dressed for Wednesday's contest Ward (undisclosed) is not dressed for Wednesday's game against Jacksonville State, Wayne Epps Jr. of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.

Impact It's unclear why Ward will be unable to go Wednesday. He played a season-low nine minutes in last Saturday's game, so he may have injured something then. Ward is averaging 4.9 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 2.3 blocks per game this season.

Ward scores 14 to lift VCU over St. Peter's 57-54

Hason Ward posted 14 points, nine rebounds and four blocks as VCU narrowly defeated St. Peter's 57-54 in a season opener

Swats four Wednesday Ward had a season-high 11 points (4-6 FG, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, four blocks and a steal Wednesday against George Washington.

Impact It was Ward's first game in double-digits this season. He comes off of the bench for the Rams and hasn't seen more than the 22 minutes he saw here all season, so a repeat of the scoring seems unlikely. That said, Ward's appeal is his defense, averaging 2.2 blocks in just 17.7 minutes. He's worth streaming in roto formats if you need a boost, but the Rams aren't currently scheduled to play again until January 23 against Dayton.
