SOUTH CAROLINA GAMECOCKS NEWS

Not playing Saturday McCreary (undisclosed) is unavailable for Saturday's game against Florida A&M, according to David Cloninger of The Charleston Post and Courier.

Impact McCreary has come off the bench in each of South Carolina's last three games, scoring eight points across 17 minutes the last time out. He was missing from warmups before Saturday's tilt, though, and now his next chance to feature will come Wednesday against Texas A&M.

Not seen warming up Nelson is missing from warmups ahead of Saturday's game against Florida A&M, David Cloninger of The Charleston Post and Courier reports.

Impact It's unclear what's going on with Nelson as the Gamecocks haven't played in nearly a month due to a string of games that were either postponed or canceled. The 6-7 junior dealt with a hand injury earlier in the season although there is nothing that has connected his absence to that prior issue.

Absent from warmups Moss is missing from warmups ahead of Saturday's game against Florida A&M, David Cloninger of The Charleston Post and Courier reports.

Impact It's unclear what's going on with Moss as he's played in all three of the team's games and had no prior report of any sort of injury or illness heading into Saturday. The 6-4 sophomore has been a steady contributor off the bench so far while averaging 6.3 points, 1.7 assists and 1.7 steals in 21.7 minutes per game. Seventh Woods could see an uptick in minutes with Moss unlikely to play.
