Slow night in return to action Young registered three points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt), two rebounds and one block over 17 minutes during Thursday's 67-51 loss to Indiana.

Impact Young had a stretch from mid-November to early-December where he finished with double digits in the scoring column in five of six games. He has tallied a combined eight points in his last two appearances. That being said, Thursday was Young's first game action since Dec. 11, so it's not surprising he was a little rusty.

Available Thursday Young (undisclosed) will be in uniform for Thursday's game against Indiana, Patrick Murphy of 247Sports reports.

Impact Young looked to heading in the right direction based on a report that he was feeling better Wednesday, and it appears he's been cleared to give it a go. The senior only missed one game but last appeared in game action Dec. 11 versus Wisconsin, so it remains to be seen exactly how much he has in the tank.

The senior forward has averaged 10 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 1.2 assists on 21.8 minutes per game for Ohio State this season. He will look to get back into the rotation for the Buckeyes and make an immediate impact soon.

Impact It's unclear why Young will be held out of the contest. He has averaged 10.0 points and 6.7 rebounds per game this season. The Buckeyes will hope to get Young back on Thursday against Indiana.
