Jalen Haynes - College Basketball News & Rumors

Out indefinitely Haynes (lower body) is out indefinitely following knee surgery, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Haynes was already reported to have undergone a procedure on his knee, and this doesn't exactly clarify anything except that the forward has no timeframe for a potential return. Haynes was expected to be a factor in the Bearcats' rotation this season after averaging 14.1 points and 6.9 rebounds with George Mason in 2024-2025.

Undergoes surgery Haynes (lower body) recently underwent surgery, according to Neil Meyer of The Front Office News.

Impact "Haynes had a procedure. I don't have an update on his timetable, but it won't be soon," Cincinnati's head coach Wes Miller recently said. "We have hope he (Haynes) can return this season. I don't have an exact timetable as of right now." Miller indicates that Haynes may use a redshirt, and until further notice, his injury status will remain out indefinitely.

Out indefinitely Haynes (lower body) is out indefinitely, per Neil Meyer of Front Office News.

Impact This is a big blow to the Bearcats' front court. The George Mason transfer is coming off an excellent junior season in which he averaged 14.1 points, 6.9 rebounds and 1.4 assists while shooting 55 percent from the field. Haynes was expected to compete for a starting role in Cincinnati's front court in 2025-2026, but he's now out for an extended period of time and little is known about his undisclosed lower body ailment. This will put more onus on Baba Miller and Moustapha Thiam down low for the Bearcats.

Commits to Cincinnati Haynes will transfer to Cincinnati, Keegan Nickoson of BearcatJournal.com reports.

Impact Haynes will join the Bearcats after a strong season with George Mason, where he averaged 14.1 points and 6.9 rebounds over 25.6 minutes in 36 starts. Cincinnati will mark Haynes' fourth collegiate program.

Looks to capitalize on big year Haynes will enter the transfer portal, per VerbalCommits.com.

Impact Haynes averaged 14.6 points, 6.9 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 2024-2025 with George Mason following a redshirt 2023-2024 campaign. It's safe to say he didn't miss a beat, and he'll now look for a high-major program willing to gamble on the 6-foot-8 forward's upside.

Redshirting 2023-24 season Haynes is redshirting George Mason's 2023-24 season, according to MasonHoops.com.

Impact With enough frontcourt depth for its 2023-24 season, George Mason's team cannot maximize Haynes' usage. So to maintain two years of collegiate eligibility, he will redshirt this ongoing campaign.
