Miles Goodman - Out vs. UMBC Goodman (shoulder) will remain out for Penn State against UMBC, per the Big Ten injury report.
Impact Goodman has yet to play this season, and the true freshman won't get to suit up in the Nittany Lions' second game of the season after missing the opener. Goodman figures to be buried on the rotation, but these buy games would've been good chances to get the young forward involved.

Eli Rice - Out Friday Rice (undisclosed) will not appear in Friday's matchup with UMBC.
Impact Rice is set to remain sidelined as he continues to recover from an undisclosed injury. Head coach Mike Rhoades indicated earlier this week that Rice "won't be out for too long" so a return next Tuesday against St. Francis (PA.) appears on the table for the 6-foot-8 sophomore.

Miles Goodman - Going through injury protocols Goodman (shoulder) is unlikely to appear in Friday's game against UMBC, Austin Mitchell of Rivals.com reports.
Impact Goodman was inactive for Penn State's season opener on Monday after he was spotted in a sling during the offseason. The 6-foot-11 freshman, who was wearing a shoulder sleeve during pregame warmups, continues to work through "injury protocols" according to head coach Mike Rhoades and he is expected to "miss a little time, but be back sooner than later."

Eli Rice - Expected to be available soon Rice (undisclosed) is expected to be available again soon, according to Austin Mitchell of Rivals.
Impact Even though Rice sat out Penn State's game Monday, then also included the head coach saying his injured player will be available soon. Currently, his next opportunity to play is against Maryland-Baltimore County on Friday.

Yanic Konan Niederhauser - Stands out in program debut Niederahuser registered 16 points (4-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 8-12 FT), seven rebounds, two blocks and one steal in 22 minutes during Monday's 108-66 win over Binghamton.
Impact Konan Niederahuser had a strong outing in his first season with the Nittany Lions. The 7-foot junior, who transferred in from NIU, posted season averages of 7.3 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.1 blocks across 27 games last season. Konan Niederahuser will look to hold down the five spot for Penn State this season, offering some stellar shot-blocking capabilities.

Dominick Stewart - Nearly perfect in collegiate debut Stewart accumulated 10 points (4-5 FG, 2-2 3Pt) and three rebounds across nine minutes during Monday's 108-66 victory over Binghamton.
Impact Stewart converted on 4-of-5 looks from the field, closing with 10 points and three rebounds off the bench in Penn State's season opener against Binghampton. The 6-foot-5 freshman, a three-star recruit in the class of 2024, is unlikely to have a consistent role with the Nittany Lions, but his outing was encouraging when looking for a potential role.

Zach Hicks - Scores 22 in opener Hicks accumulated 22 points (9-12 FG, 4-6 3Pt), seven rebounds, four assists, one block and three steals across 27 minutes during Monday's 108-66 victory over Binghamton.
Impact Hicks cashed in 9-of-12 looks from the field, closing with a game-high 22 points, seven rebounds, four assists and three steals during Penn State's season-opening win over Binghampton. The 6-foot-8 senior, who averaged 8.4 points, 3.9 rebounds and one assist across 33 starts last season, appears set for a boost in production with the Nittany Lions this season.

Eli Rice - Not playing in season opener Rice (undisclosed) is out for Monday's season opener against Binghamton.
Impact Rice won't be available for the season opener, though there aren't many details regarding what kind of injury he's battling. Even when available, he shouldn't play a significant role in the rotation -- he averaged just 4.2 points and 1.6 rebounds per game in 17 outings off the bench in 2023-24. His next chance to play will come against Maryland-Baltimore County on Friday.

Miles Goodman - Out for opener Goodman (undisclosed) is out for Monday's game versus Binghamton.
Impact Goodman is set to miss the season opener as he deals with an undisclosed injury. It's currently unclear what the true freshman is dealing with or how serious it is. His next chance to suit up is Friday versus UMBC.

Freddie Dilione - Primed for better role Dilione is primed for a better role for Penn State's 2024-25 season, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.
Impact According to Tyler Calvaruso of 247Sports, Dilione was part of Penn State's starting backcourt when the Nittany Lions logged their October exhibition Friday. PSU's head coach Mike Rhoades confirmed that he plans to use Dilione and Ace Baldwin as a backcourt, though the HC did not specify whether or not they will continue starting together. Either way, Dilione's current role is a significant upgrade from his time enrolled at Tennessee.
