Isaiah Whaley - Limited to 13 minutesWhaley (ankle) recorded just two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3PT), five rebounds and two blocks over 13 minutes Wednesday versus LIU-Brooklyn.
ImpactWhaley saw half of the minutes Wednesday that he saw against Coppin State in the previous contest, likely due to both the ankle issue he had coming into the contest and the fact that the game was a blowout. There hasn't been word of any sort of setback, so the senior figures to continue being heavily involved in the rotation moving forward.

Jordan Hawkins - Makes season debutHawkins (ankle) provided five points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, one assist and three steals in eight minutes during Wednesday's 93-40 victory over LIU Brooklyn.
ImpactHawkins had yet to take the court this season due to an ankle injury, and while it required a 50-plus point blowout, the freshman still got his chance. It was about as efficient of an eight minutes as you can get, with Hawkins contributing across multiple categories, but that doesn't guarantee the freshman has cracked the rotation moving forward.

Isaiah Whaley - In starting fiveWhaley (ankle) will start Wednesday's game against LIU-Brooklyn, Neill Ostrout of the Manchester Journal Inquirer reports.
ImpactWhaley was deemed a game-time decision leading up to the contest but will indeed get the start, suggesting he should be headed toward his normal allotment of work. Through two games, the senior is averaging 5.0 points, 3.0 assists, 2.0 rebounds, a block and a steal over 24.5 minutes per game.

Jordan Hawkins - Moving well in warmupsHawkins (ankle) is moving around well in early warmups ahead of Wednesday's game versus LIU-Brooklyn, Gavin Keefe of The Day reports.
ImpactHawkins is officially labeled a game-time decision for the contest, but this is a good early indication that he may have a chance to make his season debut. If that's the case, Hawkins would likely appear off the bench for the Huskies.

Isaiah Whaley - Taking part in warmupsWhaley (ankle) is moving well in pregame warmups ahead of Wednesday's clash with LIU-Brooklyn, Gavin Keefe of The Day reports.
ImpactWhaley is officially a game-time decision, so his presence in warmups is at least a good sign. It remains to be seen if he'll be in uniform when the game gets closer, but the starting lineup should tell a better story about the level of his availability even if he seems to be ready to go.
