Patrick Baldwin - Sits due to COVID-19 protocols Baldwin was unavailable for Thursday's game versus Wright State due to COVID-19 health and safety protocols, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Impact Baldwin was coming off of his worst effort of the season against Rhode Island but didn't get a chance to put that behind him Thursday due to COVID-19 issues running rampant across the country. The team doesn't take the floor again until Dec. 30 versus Wright State, so he may have enough time to clear protocols before then.

Patrick Baldwin - Sets career high in return Baldwin (back) ended Saturday's 77-69 win over Robert Morris with 26 points (9-14 FG, 6-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and two blocks across 29 minutes.
Impact Baldwiin missed a trio of games due to a back injury, and his absence was felt, as the Panthers went 0-3 over that stretch. The five-star freshman hadn't necessarily stopped the team struggles before that, however, as Milwaukee had been on a three-game losing streak prior to that even with him in the lineup. Still, it was good to see Baldwin back and setting a new career-high scoring mark, due largely to a perfect effort from distance. He's shooting an impressive 40.0 percent from beyond the arc through five games, in addition to averaging 17.4 points and 8.0 rebounds.

Impact Baldwin will likely need to get a contact practice or two in before being considered for live action, so a return in the short turnaround may be a lot to ask. He seems a better bet to be back in the mix next Friday against Colorado if he can avoid setbacks over the next week, but it will still be worth monitoring his status ahead of Saturday's clash with Robert Morris.
