Osun Osunniyi - Big double-double in OT winOsunniyi totaled 15 points (6-12 FG, 3-3 FT), 15 rebounds, two assists, four blocks and one steal over 43 minutes during Tuesday's 80-76 1OT victory over La Salle.
ImpactOsunniyi set new season highs in both rebounding and minutes played, showing he'll definitely continue to be a driving factor inside as Atlantic Ten play commences. The Bonnies hadn't played a game since Dec. 17 prior to Tuesday, but with COVID issues hopefully in the past, Osunniyi should be in the clear to be a steady fantasy producer the rest of the way out. The fourth-year center is in the midst of his third consecutive season averaging double figures, and while his rebounding is down a bit, there will be plenty of opportunities to get that back up to par.

Oluwasegun Durosinmi - Won't play TuesdayDurosinmi won't play Tuesday against La Salle due to COVID-19 protocols, J.P. Butler of the Olean Times-Herald reports.
ImpactDurosinmi doesn't typically play more than a couple of minutes when he does appear, so his absence shouldn't change the shape of the Bonnies' rotation much. Another update on his status should surface once he's back in action.

Linton Brown - Out due to COVID-19 protocolsBrown will not be available for Tuesday's game against La Salle due to COVID-19 protocols, J.P. Butler of the Olean Times-Herald reports.
ImpactOluwasegun Durosinmi is out for the same reason as well.The Bonnies will hope to get both players back for Friday's game against VCU. Brown had been a solid option off the bench this season.
