One board shy of double-double Likekele supplied 12 points (6-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt), nine rebounds, five assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Friday's 56-55 loss to Oakland.

Impact Likekele and Bryce Thompson tied for the team lead in scoring in what was an ugly offensive performance from the Cowboys in a loss to Oakland. Saying that, Likekele is not a big scorer and his value comes from his ability to contribute in multiple categories. he did a solid job of that on Friday and should continue to do so this season with Cade Cunningham no longer in the fold.

Inactive Saturday Likekele (hand) won't play in Saturday's game against West Virginia, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Likekele will be inactive for his sixth game out of the team's past seven due to a lingering hand injury. Rondel Walker will likely start again. Star freshman Cade Cunningham will also miss Saturday's game, leaving the Cowboys without two of its top offensive contributors. Likekele's next chance to return comes in the Big 12 Tournament, which tips off March 10.

Officially out Thursday Likekel (hand) will not play in Thursday's game against Baylor, Cody Nagel of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Likekele has been dealing with this hand injury for the past couple weeks now. His next chance to return would either be on Saturday against West Virginia or next week at the Big 12 Tournament. Cade Cunningham will continue to get increased work as the primary distributor.

Expected to sit Thursday Likekele (hand) isn't expected to take the floor Thursday versus Baylor, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Likekele has skipped four of the last five games and appears set to add another to the ledger as he continues to recover from a hand injury. Assuming that's the case, he would have one more chance to rejoin the action ahead of the Big 12 Conference Tournament on Saturday versus West Virginia.

Not warming up Likekele (hand) isn't warming up ahead of Saturday's game against Oklahoma, Jacob Unruh of The Oklahoman reports.

Impact Likekele was limited in practice during the week due to a hand injury, and he appears to be on track to miss Saturday's game after he was seen in street clothes during pregame warmups. If he's ultimately ruled out, Rondel Walker should see increased usage for the Cowboys on Saturday.

Sustains new injury Likekele has been limited in practice this week due to a hand injury he suffered during Monday's win over Texas Tech, Jacob Unruh of The Oklahoman reports.

Impact Likekele has seemingly put his foot injury behind him, but now he's dealing with a hand injury. The extent of the injury is unknown at this time, but it makes his availability less certain ahead of Saturday's game against Oklahoma. If Likekele is unable to go, Rondel Walker will likely see the greatest increase in minutes Saturday.

Big minutes in return Likekele (foot) had two points (1-1 FG, 0-2 FT), six rebounds, three assists and two steals across 33 minutes off the bench in Monday's 74-69 victory over Texas Tech.

Impact While Likekele was a non-factor in the scoring department after back-to-back games on the sidelines, he still provided significant contributions in a major, resume-boosting win for the Cowboys. Likekele is typically more of a distributor than a scorer anyway, as he had reached double figures just once in his previous six games before the injury. He may have to do both Saturday against a top-10-ranked Oklahoma team.
