Tolu Smith - Logs 20 minutes against Alabama Smith fouled out of Saturday's 78-76 win over Alabama after recording six points (2-6 FG, 2-2 FT) and four rebounds in 20 minutes. Impact Smith has already missed multiple long stretches of games this season due to a recurring foot injury, and while the culprit of his recent two-game absence was never officially disclosed, it wouldn't be outlandish to assume they are related. When healthy, the 6-11 Smith has served as the starting center in every game he's played, and the numbers have been pretty solid two. The upperclassman has averaged 12.8 points and 7.2 rebounds in the six games he has played, which isn't too far off from the numbers posted in his breakout 2020-21 campaign that saw him start 30 games. It appears there isn't much hesitation to deploy Smith when he's issued the proper clearance, but it wouldn't be surprising to see more maintenance days down the stretch.
