JALEN PICKETT NEWS

Game-time call Saturday Pickett (hamstring) will be a game-time decision for Saturday's game against Rider, according to Mark Singelais of the Albany Times Union.

Impact Siena's head coach Carmen Maciariello said he'd have to check with trainer Greg Dashnaw on whether Pickett can play tomorrow. "I'm not really even thinking about that, to be honest. It's a short turnaround. If he can play, great. If he can't, great.", he said. Pickett, who is averaging 17.7 points per game but has missed two games in a row, will be a game-time call for this contest.

Won't play Friday Pickett (hamstring) will not take the floor Friday versus Rider, Mark Singelais of the Albany Times Union reports.

Impact Coach Carmen Marciarello suggested earlier in the week that the staff was going to be cautious in getting Pickett back on the floor to avoid any further issues, so it's not a big surprise that the star guard will miss at least one contest as a result. Given the short turnaround to Saturday's game, it seems likely a pair of absences may be on the way.

Game-day decision Pickett (hamstring will be a game-day decision for the clashes against Rider, Michael Kelly of The Daily Gazette reports.

Impact Coach Carmen Maciariello indicated that "we're going to be cautious" with Pickett, who leads the Saints with 17.7 points per game to go along with 9.7 boards and 4.3 assists. That would seem to suggest Pickett needs to make strides ahead of the contest for a chance to take the floor. If he can't go, look for Manny Camper to serve in a starring role, while Aidan Carpenter seems the likely candidate to see the biggest boost in playing time and to retain a starting spot.

Unavailable Sunday Pickett will not play in Sunday's game against Fairfield due to an apparent hamstring injury, Mark Singelais of the Albany Times Union reports.

Impact Pickett went through warmups to see how he felt but was moving around with a noticeable limp. He must've tweaked his hamstring in Saturday's game and will be forced to sit out Sunday's back-to-back series against Fairfield. The 6-4 junior has averaged a team-high 17.7 points and 9.7 rebounds per game this season as his absence will create a huge void in the lineup. Aidan Carpenter will step into a starting role with Pickett out.
