Doesn't play Thursday Massoud didn't appear in Thursday's game against Missouri-Kansas City, Derek Young of On3 Sports reports.

Impact Kansas State head coach Jerome Tang said that Massoud "could have been" available, but he was ultimately held out since members of the team were dealing with a flu-like illness. Provided he doesn't experience any lingering effects of the illness, Massoud should be ready to play Monday against Rhode Island.

Impact Massoud's 13 points were his most in a game since a 17-point outing on Dec. 12 against Green Bay back when he was a starter. Now he will likely continue to come off the bench going forward and try to provide a spark. Kansas State will travel to take on Oklahoma State on Saturday.

Puts up 10 points Tuesday Massoud had 10 points (4-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt), three assists and a rebound across 27 minutes in Tuesday's loss against Pittsburgh.

Impact Massoud came off the bench once again but ended as Pittsburgh's second-best scorer -- and the second player who ended with 10 or more points. Massoud scored in double digits for the first time after seven straight games off the bench, so his numbers have undoubtedly taken a hit since his role changed.

Scores eight points off bench Massoud had eight points (2-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT) and two rebounds in 21 minutes off the bench during Saturday's loss against Virginia Tech.

Scores career-high 31 points Massoud posted 31 points (10-14 FG, 8-10 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds and two steals across 34 minutes in Saturday's win over Pittsburgh.

Impact Massoud started for the second game in a row and bounced back from his scoreless outing against North Carolina on Jan. 20 by putting up a career-best performance. Massoud has been extremely inconsistent on a game-to-game basis, and while he's able to score at a strong rate on any given day, his lack of conspires against his upside.

Massoud is averaging 7.8 points and 2.6 rebounds per contest while shooting 40.9 percent from three-point range. His numbers aren't that poor considering he's yet to log 20 or more minutes in a single appearance.
