Practicing again, but return TBD Providence head coach Ed Cooley said Monday that Davis (concussion) is "working hard and getting better" in practice, but the freshman is without a definitive target date to return...

Impact Davis hasn't played all season after news of his concussion surfaced in late November prior to the team's opener. At this point, the Friars are likely viewing the 2020-21 campaign as a developmental one for Davis, who doesn't have a clear path to a rotation spot at the moment.

Ready for practice work Providence head coach Ed Cooley said Monday that Bynum (groin) will begin participating in practice this week, but the sophomore guard is without a clear timetable to return to gam...

Impact Bynum has been out since Jan. 2 with a left groin strain, an injury that typically carries a 4-to-6-week recovery window. While he's been cleared to resume 5-on-0 work on the court, Bynum may need another week or so before he's ready for full-contact, full-court work. Expect him to remain out through at least the Friars' final two games of the month, set for Wednesday (versus Marquette) and Saturday (at Georgetown).

Gillespie, Moore lead No. 3 Villanova past Providence 71-56

Collin Gillespie and Justin Moore scored 15 points apiece, and No. 3 Villanova used a dominating second half to defeat Providence 71-56

Drastically underperforms in loss Duke posted 10 points (4-17 FG, 1-6 3PT, 1-1 FT), 11 rebounds, four assists and one block in 37 minutes during the 71-56 loss to Villanova on Saturday.

Impact Duke has only had three games so far this season where he could muster up 50 percent or better on the floor, otherwise his shooting has been putrid at best. The loss was no different and luckily for him, he made up for some of the lack of production in the paint. No matter what, Duke will continue to receive the bulk of the minutes and will need to find form soon if the Friars want to compete in the conference.

Continues poor form in loss Reeves recorded five points (1-4 FG, 1-4 3PT, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and one steal in 34 minutes during the 71-56 loss to Villanova on Saturday.

Impact Reeves after posting a good stretch of ball, has fallen back into a poor run of form and that trend continued in the loss Saturday. The forward is struggling to find rhythm and has not shot 50 percent or better from the floor in the past five matches. He does produce in the paint, but not enough to make up for his lack of points and production elsewhere. Until he can start finding some form, again he is not viable.

No timetable for a return Bynum (groin) did not end up playing Saturday against Villanova and head coach Ed Cooley said after the game that he has no set timetable for a return, Bill Koch of The Providence...

Impact Bynum was in uniform and took part in warmups ahead of Saturday's game but it seems he never actually had a shot of playing. The 5-10 sophomore hasn't played since injuring himself against Creighton on Jan. 2 and there remains no official outlook on when he could be expected to return.

Warming up Saturday Bynum (groin) is dressed and warming up ahead of Saturday's game against Villanova, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.

Impact Bynum warmed up last game before ultimately sitting, so he remains a game-time decision ahead of Saturday's tipoff. If he misses his fourth straight game, Alyn Breed will start at point guard again.

JANUARY 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Game-time call Saturday Bynum (groin) will be a game-time decision for Saturday's contest against Villanova, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact Bynum is a critical piece for the Friars, as the point guard is averaging 5.8 points and 4.5 assists per game this season. He has already missed three games in a row and, while his fantasy impact isn't very high, Providence undoubtedly miss him -- they've gone 1-2 since he went down injured and also lost the game where he suffered the groin problem.
