Back in starting five Diarra is listed amongst UConn's starting five ahead of Tuesday's game against Villanova, Joe Arruda of the Hartford Courant reports.

Impact Diarra, who has come off the bench during UConn's last two outings, will make his move back into the Huskies' starting five with Jaylin Stewart making the shift to the bench. The 6-foot-2 senior guard is averaging 8.2 points, 3.4 rebounds, six assists and 1.5 steals across 25 games (18 starts) on the season.

Comes off bench Tuesday Diarra (undisclosed) ended Tuesday's 70-66 win over Creighton with zero points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds and one steal in seven minutes.

Impact Diarra was deemed a game-time decision prior to the start of the matchup but was able to give it a go. The senior guard will aim for a better performance during Saturday's meeting with Seton Hall.

FEBRUARY 11 • ROTOWIRE

Game-time call for Tuesday Diarra is a game-time call for Tuesday's game against Creighton due to an undisclosed injury that has kept him limited in practice, Joe Arruda of the Hartford Courant reports.

Impact Head coach Dan Hurley said Diarra "has been limited and will be for the rest of the way here," so his status going forward will remain pretty much uncertain. The floor general is averaging 5.4 points, 4.8 rebounds, 5.2 assists and 1.6 steals per game over his last five appearances, so even if he's not scoring at a high rate, losing him would be a huge blow for UConn.

Starting vs. St. John's Diarra (undisclosed) is included in the starting rotation for Friday's game against St. John's, Joe Arruda of the Hartford Courant reports.

Impact Diarra was deemed a game-time decision leading up to the game but will be available for this matchup. The senior guard has totaled 20 points over the last three contests.

Limited in practice Head coach Dan Hurley indicated that Diarra (undisclosed) has been limited in practice and will be a game-time decision ahead of Friday's matchup against St. John's, per Joe Arruda...

Impact The details and severity of Diarra's issue are currently unknown, but it appears significant enough to put him in danger of missing his first game of the season. The 6-foot-2 guard has been an impact player for the Huskies this season, averaging 8.6 points and 6.4 assists per game through 22 contests. With fellow guard Aidan Mahaney also questionable, Solo Ball could take command of the offense as the de facto point guard if both Mahaney and Diarra are out or limited.

Seven dimes in road win Diarra ended Saturday's 77-69 victory over Marquette with five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds and seven assists over 25 minutes.

Impact Diarra rarely lights up the scoreboard, but his consistent distribution numbers continue to provide managers with value in rotisserie formats. After recording another seven dimes Saturday, his season-long average is up to 6.4 apg, good for second in the Big East behind Creighton's Steven Ashworth (6.8 apg). Next up is a home matchup against St. John's on Friday.

Season-high points in close win Diarra closed with 19 points (4-8 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 10-11 FT), two rebounds, eight assists and three steals across 38 minutes during Sunday's 87-84 win over Providence.

Impact In a game that was projected to be a blowout, the Huskies shot themselves in the foot especially by being down 12 points at half. Luckily for the squad, Diarra started to heat up in the second half, finishing out the close win with a season-high 19 points. The starting point guard hasn't been the biggest contributor in terms of points scored so far this season, but his ability to move the ball around and help others score, on top of himself, has proven to be a valuable asset for UConn.

11 assists in OT thriller Diarra ended Wednesday's 94-89 OT victory over Xavier with 12 points (5-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, 11 assists and one block across 42 minutes.

Impact Diarra popped out just his fifth double-digit scoring game of the year, but he showcased amazing facilitating skills with 11 assists against the Musketeers. The senior guard has been a great passer even when the shots haven't been falling this year, but he was able to mix the two together in the overtime victory. He's now averaging 8.0 points, 2.9 rebounds, 6.2 assists and 1.2 steals across 12 games this campaign.
