Sincere Parker - Reaches double-digit scoring again Parker posted 12 points (6-14 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds and three assists across 23 minutes during Saturday's 99-73 loss to Louisville.

Impact Parker was a meaningful rotator for the Tigers once again, even in a blowout loss to the Cardinals. The senior guard's 12 points were his third straight showing with double-digit points, and the previous two were in much closer games. He'll seek to be a spark off the bench once again versus Vandy this Wednesday.

Impact The 6-8 senior has only played in three games this season. He missed the first five games with a quad injury.

Curtis Givens III - Appears unlikely vs. Cards Givens (thigh) looks doubtful for Memphis' tilt with Louisville on Saturday, per Parth Upadhyaya of DailyMemphian.com.

Impact Givens has missed three straight contests and appears to be headed to a fourth absence. He and his backcourt mate Julius Thedford are both long-shots to play, as head coach Penny Hardaway said "I don't think we'll have Julius, (and) I don't think we'll have Curtis either." Givens averages 7.4 points and 1.6 assists this season.

Julius Thedford - Doubtful vs. Louisville Thedford (knee) appears doubtful for Memphis' clash with Louisville on Saturday, Dec. 13, per Parth Upadhyaya of DailyMemphian.com.

Impact The initially feeling around Thedford's availability for the tilt with Louisville was positive, but now, it appears that the guard is doubtful to play. "Julius is still kinda at about 50%. ... I don't think we'll have Julius," head coach Penny Hardaway told reporters Thursday. Thedford, who averages 9.0 points and 5.1 rebounds, now appears primed to miss his second straight game.

DECEMBER 11 • ROTOWIRE

Hasan Abdul Hakim - Guaranteed to return Saturday Abdul Hakim (personal) is guaranteed to return during Saturday's game at Louisville, according to Parth Upadhyaya of The Daily Memphian.

Impact Upadhyaya indicates that Abdul Hakim is available. If fellow wings Julius Thedford (knee) and Curtis Givens (thigh) remain out Saturday at Louisville, Abdul Hakim is in line for increased minutes yet again. In two games this season, both of them saw him log more than 20 minutes, with 21 and 25 respectively. There is room for improvement though, as the two-game span includes Abdul Hakim's 2.0 turnovers per game and a 23.1 field goal percentage.

Curtis Givens III - Will return Dec. 13 Givens (thigh) will make his return during the Dec.13 matchup versus Louisville, per Parth Upadhyaya of The Daily Memphian.
