Logs 14 minutes in return Julien (knee) played 14 minutes off the bench in his return Friday against Arkansas-Little Rock. He finished with six points (2-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and a steal.
Impact Julien didn't do much off the bench, but he returned to the court and that's a huge boost for Louisiana-Lafayette, especially since he hadn't played all season long.

Could return Friday Julien (knee) could play in Friday's game against Arkansas-Little Rock, Kevin Foote of the Acadia Advocate reports.
Impact Julien has yet to play this season after averaging 12.8 points and 5.5 rebounds over 30.0 minutes per game last season, but it appears he's nearing a return. Julien remains a game-time decision for the contest, so fantasy managers should keep tabs on his availability ahead of Friday's 7:30 p.m. ET tipoff.

Julien has yet to play this season but averaged 12.8 points per game in eight appearances during the 2019-20 campaign.
