Andre Curbelo - Concussion symptoms in playCurbelo had six points (2-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven assists and three rebounds across 20 minutes in Tuesday's 72-64 victory over Kansas State.ImpactCurbelo still appears to be having symptoms from the concussion that held him out of the season opener, as he missed time on multiple occasions to speak with trainers on the sideline and receive treatment. After the game, coach Brad Underwood noted that Curbelo is still fighting "head trauma" and "concussion stuff." While that sounds quite serious and could lead to lower minutes totals ahead, it has yet to force Curbelo to miss any games entirely since the opener. The numbers have still been solid, however, as the second-year guard is posting 9.3 points, 5.5 assists and 4.3 rebounds across 22.0 minutes. Those per-minute numbers should translate to a big increase in counting stats once he takes on a full workload, but until then, Alfonso Plummer -- who scored 21 points off the bench Tuesday -- should continue to see extra run.
