Appears out again McGusty (hamstring) is not participating in warmups ahead of Saturday's game against Louisville, Josh White of WVUM Sports reports.

Impact McGusty missed the Canes' previous three games with the hamstring issue, and he appears to be in line to sit again Saturday. If he is indeed unavailable against the Cardinals, his next chance to return will be Tuesday against Syracuse.

Missing from warmups Lykes (ankle) is not warming up ahead of Saturday's game against Louisville, Josh White of WVUM Sports reports.

Status unclear for Saturday Gak missed Miami's game earlier this week with knee soreness and it's unclear if he'll be able to play in Saturday's game against Louisville, Christopher Stock of 247sports.com rep...

Impact Head coach Jim Larranaga said Friday that Gak is going to get his knees treated next week and hopefully they will help him get as close to 100 percent as possible. The 6-11 junior missed most of last season with a right knee injury and it's possible he may be feeling some of the lingering effects from the issue. If he's unable to go, Nysier Brooks will get a heavy load of minutes with most of the Hurricanes' big men being unavailable to play.

Game-time call Saturday Lykes (ankle) will be a game-time decision for Saturday's game against Louisville, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact The Canes' starting backcourt has struggled to be healthy this season and Lykes has played just two times this season, though he has scored at least 11 points in both contests. Lykes has missed nine games in a row and, considering he hasn't played in several weeks, he could very well start this game off the bench.

Could be option Saturday McGusty (hamstring) will be a game-time decision for Saturday's game against Louisville, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact The Canes' starting backcourt has struggled to be healthy this season and McGusty has missed three games in a row while playing just one game since Dec. 12 due to a nagging hamstring problem. McGusty is averaging 10.2 points per game this season and, due to the fact he's yet to take the court in quite a while, he could start this game off the bench.

Unavailable on Tuesday Gak was unavailable in Tuesday's loss to Boston College due to undisclosed reasons, Christopher Stock of 247 Sports reports.

Impact Gak had appeared in each of the last nine games for the Hurricanes, tallying a combined 30 minutes in his last two. He ended up joining Chris Lykes (ankle) and Kameron McGusty (hamstring) on the injured list Tuesday, which ultimately resulted in a 22-point loss to the 3-9 Eagles. Consider Gak questionable for his regular forward depth role in advance of Saturday's matchup against Louisville.

Scores team-high 14 points Brooks registered 14 points (4-7 FG, 6-6 FT), seven rebounds and an assist across 21 minutes in Tuesday's loss at Boston College.

Impact Brooks has scored 10 or more points just four times this season, but all those games have come over a recent eight-game stretch. He has a secondary role in the Hurricanes' offensive scheme but has delivered decent value on the glass, averaging 6.3 boards per game to go along with 7.2 points this season.

Missing third straight game Miami head coach Jim Larranaga said McGusty (hamstring) won't be available for Tuesday's game against Boston College, Jeff Goodman of WatchStadium.com reports.

Impact With Chris Lykes (ankle) also sidelined, the Hurricanes will likely turn to Harlond Beverly, Earl Timberlake and Elijah Olaniyi to fill most of the minutes at guard alongside star sophomore Isaiah Wong. McGusty's right hamstring injury has now sidelined him for three games in a row and six of Miami's last seven contests.

Sitting again Tuesday Miami head coach Jim Larranaga said Lykes (ankle) won't be available for Tuesday's game at Boston College, Jeff Goodman of WatchStadium.com reports.

Impact In addition to Lykes, the Hurricanes will also be without Kameron McGusty (hamstring), leaving the team a bit shorthanded in the backcourt. Lykes' sprained left ankle has now sidelined him for nine consecutive contests, but Miami continues to evaluate him on a game-by-game basis.

JANUARY 12, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

One board shy of double-double Wong notched 24 points (8-15 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 7-9 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, three steals and a block across 36 minutes in Saturday's win over NC State.

Impact Wong has scored at least 20 points five different times this season and, while he's a proven scorer, the lack of consistency has been his biggest issue -- he was coming off back-to-back games where he couldn't reach the 15-point mark. Wong is averaging 17.5 points and 6.0 rebounds on 34.9 minutes per game this season.

Not playing Saturday McGusty (hamstring) won't play Saturday against NC State, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact McGusty already missed three games earlier this year due to a hamstring injury, and he seems to be ready to spend time on the sidelines once again -- he has played in just one of Miami's last five games and will miss this matchup against NC State as well. His next chance to return will come Tuesday at Boston College.

Ruled out Saturday Lykes (ankle) won't face NC State on Saturday, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact Lykes has been dealing with what has been described as "the worst ankle sprain of his career", according to coach Jim Larranaga, and his return date remains uncertain. Lykes' next chance to play will come Tuesday at Boston College.

Hurricanes try to bounce back from Larranaga's worst start

To move ahead of John Wooden on the list of coaching victories, the Miami Hurricanes’ Jim Larranaga needs just one win

JANUARY 8, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Scores team-high 12 points Timberlake posted 12 points (3-13 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 6-7 FT), five rebounds, five assists, five steals and two blocks across 37 minutes in Tuesday's loss against North Carolina.

Impact Timberlake might have done a nice job filling out the stat sheet, but he needed 13 shots to record 12 points and his woeful shooting effort can't be overlooked. Timberlake has scored more than 10 points in three of his first four appearances of the campaign and all signs would seem to indicate he'll remain in the starting lineup moving forward given how well he's started the season.
