Bryce Hopkins - Spotted in warmups Tuesday Hopkins (knee) has been spotted in warmups before Tuesday's game against Delaware State, college basketball journalist Kevin McNamara reports.
Impact Hopkins was the first Providence player to take the court for individual warmups, and while there's no word on his availability for this contest, seeing him on the court is certainly a positive sign. Hopkins has yet to play this season but averaged 15.5 points and 8.6 boards per game in 2023-24.

Providence defeats Hampton 60-51
Led by Jayden Pierre and Joseph Bensley with 13 points, the Providence Friars defeated the Hampton Pirates 60-51 on Tuesday nightNOVEMBER 13 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Jayden Pierre - Back to full minutes in win Pierre ended Tuesday's 60-51 victory over Hampton with 13 points (5-8 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 0-1 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 32 minutes.
Impact Pierre has been restricted in the earlier games of the season with a groin injury, but he reverted to 32 minutes in the win over Hampton, which was the second-highest on the team. The junior guard also logged a season-best 13 points, although only three games have unfolded, and his output should continue to heighten as he continues to sustain full games in the coming weeks.

Wesley Cardet - 12 point effort in victory Cardet closed with 12 points (5-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 0-2 FT), eight rebounds and one assist across 26 minutes during Saturday's 76-49 victory over Stonehill.
Impact Cardet put together a solid 12 points vs. Stonehill, and he also amassed a near double-double with eight rebounds. The 6-foot-6 senior looks to currently be filling into the starting lineup with forward Bryce Hopkins out for multiple weeks, and Cardet could even secure a starting spot after Hopkins if back if he continues to play at this level of efficiency.

Jayden Pierre - Remains on minutes restriction Pierre (groin) continues to see his minutes restricted as he makes his way back from a groin injury, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.
Impact Pierre has seen an average of 23.5 minutes per game across Providence's first two games as he continues to work his way back to full strength following an offseason groin injury. The 6-foot-2 junior averaged 9.5 points, 2.5 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 0.8 steals across 31 starts with the team last season, and he should return to his normal role soon.

Bryce Hopkins - Expected to multiple weeks Hopkins (knee) "has a chance" to return in time for the Battle for Atlantis Tournament that kicks off against Oklahoma on Nov. 27, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.
Impact Hopkins has reportedly been able to return to full contact drills recently at practice, but head coach Kim English expects the senior forward to miss the next couple weeks. The 6-foot-7 senior continues to deal with a knee issue that has plagued him since his ACL tear in January, but he should be an impact player for the Friars when healthy.

Bryce Hopkins - Not starting Saturday Hopkins (knee) is not listed amongst Providence's starting five ahead of Saturday's game against Stonehill.
Impact Hopkins appears likely to sit out for a second-straight game as the Friars face off against Stonehill. The 6-foot-7 senior averaged 15.5 points, 8.6 rebounds and 1.4 assists across 14 starts in 2023, but continues to deal with a lingering knee issue.

Joseph scores 21, Providence downs Central Connecticut State 59-55
Led by Bensley Joseph's 21 points, the Providence Friars defeated the Central Connecticut State Blue Devils 59-55 on Monday nightNOVEMBER 5 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Bensley Joseph - Scoring surge in close win Joseph totaled 21 points (8-14 FG, 5-10 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one steal over 29 minutes during Monday's 59-55 win over Central Connecticut State.
Impact In a game that was supposed to be a blowout in favor of the Friars, Joseph helped keep his team up against the Blue Devils until the eventual four-point victory. Leading his team in points was impressive especially as he transferred in from Miami this offseason, but his 50 percent shooting from the arc also looked solid compared to his 36.4 to end out the 2023-24 season. The senior guard should be a top scorer for Providence this season, after averaging 9.8 points and 3.9 assists across 32 games last season.
