In starting role Tuesday Thiemann is listed in the starting five on the California Men's Basketball official Twitter account.

Impact Thiemann is set to make his first start of the season for Tuesday's game against Stanford. The junior center started 11 games for the Golden Bears last season after starting in 18 games as a freshman. Thiemann is averaging 3.3 points and 2.1 rebounds in 9.0 minutes per game this season.

Career-high 12 points Thiemann closed Wednesday's 72-46 win over Idaho State with 12 points (4-5 FG, 4-5 FT), three rebounds and one block over 13 minutes.

Impact Thiemann scored a career-high 12 points in only 13 minutes of action, as the junior has played sparingly after being an occasional starter each of the last two seasons. Turnover problems in the past have limited his playing time, although that hasn't been much of an issue this season. The 7-1 center is shooting 54 percent from the field.

Back to bench Thiemann will resume bench Thursday versus Utah after making a spot start in the team's last game versus Stanford.

Impact Thiemann got a chance with the starting unit for the first time since Jan. 7 in the contest but ended the game scoreless with just one shot attempt. He hasn't amassed more than two points in any of the last seven games, so the big man has very little to offer in terms of fantasy upside at this point.

Getting start Saturday Thiemann will join the starting five Saturday versus Cal State-Northridge.

Impact Thiemann didn't take the floor at all in the Bears' last game but does have a pair of starts under his belt this season. Considering the sophomore has still only averaged 9.5 minutes in his two previous starts, there doesn't appear to be much fantasy upside associated with the change.
