Double-double against TulsaDandridge had 10 points (5-6 FG), 10 rebounds and three blocks across 23 minutes off the bench in Sunday's 58-57 loss to Tulsa.

ImpactWith D.J. Jeffries tied up in foul trouble for most of the game, coach Penny Hardaway leaned heavily on the 6-9 sophomore with positive results. It was just his third career game in double-figure scoring, in addition to the first time he's posted 10 rebounds. That production is unlikely to keep up, but the Tigers seem to have a quality depth option up.

In concussion protocolBaugh was held out of Sunday's game against Tulsa since he's in the concussion protocol, Danielle Lerner of DailyMemphian.com reports.

ImpactA reason for Baugh's absence wasn't provided prior to Sunday's contest, but coach Penny Hardaway revealed after the game that he's in the concussion protocol after a collision at practice earlier in the week. It's not yet clear whether he'll be ready to return Thursday against Wichita State.

Not starting SundayEmbery is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against Memphis.

ImpactEmbery had started all 11 games for the Hurricanes coming into Sunday and will come off the bench for the first time this season. The 6-3 sophomore has played under 20 minutes in two of the last three games while shooting just under 30 percent from the floor and has left head coach Frank Haith no choice but to make some changes in the lineup.

Starting SundayHaywood is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against Memphis.

ImpactHaywood will re-enter the starting lineup in place of Keyshawn Embery on Sunday after coming off the bench in the last four games. The 6-5 junior has averaged 4.2 points and 3.3 rebounds in 23.4 minutes per game this season as he'll look to hopefully solidify his spot in the starting five once again.

Absent from warmupsBaugh is not participating in warmups ahead of Sunday's game against Tulsa, Jason Munz of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

ImpactThere hasn't been a report as to what's keeping Baugh out of warmups and ultimately from playing Sunday. His absence could stem from the team's previous outing in which Baugh inexplicably saw a season-low five minutes of action despite averaging 20.6 minutes per game over the last eight games. The 6-3 sophomore missed a game earlier in the season with a back injury although nothing so far has indicated that his absence is related to that issue. With Baugh unavailable, Alex Lomax and Boogie Ellis should see some increased usage in the backcourt.
