TEMPLE OWLS NEWS

Khalif Battle - Out vs. Tulsa Battle will be out during Temple's game Sunday versus Tulsa.

Impact Personal reasons will prevent Battle from being available Sunday. It is unclear when he will return, but his next opportunity to play is at Cincinnati next Wednesday. So unfortunately for the Owls, they will be without one of college basketball's best substitute scorers Sunday.

Jahlil White - Appears available Thursday White (lower body) was spotted participating in pre-game warmups prior to Thursday's game against Wichita State, 247Sports.com reports.

Impact White was unable to take the floor Sunday versus Memphis as a result of a bruised tailbone, but it currently sounds as if he'll avoid missing back-to-back contests considering his activity levels in warmups Thursday. The 6-foot-7 sophomore is averaging 5.2 points and 5.3 rebounds per game across 23 appearances (16 starts) this season.

Jahlil White - Game-time decision Thursday White (lower body) is a game-time decision before the Owls' game Thursday versus Wichita State, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact Unfortunately for fantasy managers, White's availability is expected to be known a few minutes or hours before the Owls play their game at 7:00 p.m. EST.

Hysier Miller - Scores 15 points versus Memphis Miller contributed 15 points (7-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt), six rebounds, five assists, one block and two steals in 38 minutes during Sunday's 86-77 loss to Memphis.

Impact Miller shot the ball very efficiently from the field in Sunday's loss. In the two games prior to Sunday, Miller had combined for just eight points on 30.0 percent shooting, bouncing back for a very strong performance on Sunday. Miller now has two games on the season with at least 10 points, five rebounds and five assists, doing it all for the Owls this season.

Jahlil White - Tending to tailbone injury White missed Saturday's 86-77 loss to Memphis due to a bruised tailbone, OwlsDaily.com reports.

Impact The tailbone injury is seemingly also to blame for White logging just one point across 19 minutes in last Wednesday's matchup against SMU. It's unclear if White will be ready for Thursday's matchup against Wichita State, and if not, look for Damian Dunn to continue to start.

Damian Dunn - Records eight assists Dunn logged nine points (3-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight assists and one steal across 39 minutes during the Owls' 86-77 loss Sunday at Memphis.

Impact An undisclosed injury prevented Jahlil White from participating in the Owls' latest game. Thus, Dunn was added to their starting lineup Sunday. He averaged 6.0 assists across the Owls' first half of February. So if White sits out more, fantasy managers should not be surprised when Dunn excels.

Damian Dunn - Part of starting lineup Sunday Dunn is part of the Owls' starting lineup Sunday at Memphis, according to their Twitter account.

Impact Finally, Dunn will have his first game started after being a backup option from January to early-February. He and Hysier Miller are the Owls' starting backcourt Sunday.

Impact Battle continued his hot shooting spell in Wednesday's loss. After shooting 1-9 on Jan. 9 against Houston, Battle has bounced back with four straight games shooting 50.0 percent from the field. Battle's 27 point performance marked his fourth straight game scoring 24 or more points. In the four game stretch, Battle has made 15 threes, shooting 48.4 percent from behind the arc.

Shane Dezonie - Out 4-6 weeks Dezonie (wrist) will remain out for 4-6 weeks with a right wirst injury, 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Dezonie, who suffered a wrist injury before Sunday's game against Houston, will be sidelined for 4-6 weeks. The 6-foot-4 sophomore has appeared in 12 games this season, logging 1.4 points, 1.2 rebounds and 0.6 assists on 7.3 minutes per game. Dezonie will look to make his return prior to the AAC conference tournament.

FEBRUARY 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Shane Dezonie - Has injured hand Dezonie has a hand injury, according to Ryan Wallen of 247Sports.com.

Impact Approximately 30 minutes to an hour before Temple hosted Houston on Sunday, Dezonie's right hand and wrist were seen covered with a protective wrap. The injury (or injuries) could be why he was unavailable from Jan. 18 to Feb. 5. Dezonie will sit out until further notice.

Jamille Reynolds - Plays 12 minutes Reynolds finished with two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 FT), three rebounds, three assists and one block across 12 minutes during Wednesday's 79-76 OT victory over South Florida.

Impact Perhaps because it was his first game since Dec. 10, Reynolds played relatively few minutes at a role he is not accustomed to. But sooner than later, he could be part of Temple's starting lineup again. If that happens, Kur Jongkuch is expected to be relegated to backup duties.

Jamille Reynolds - Set to return Reynolds (thumb) is slated to return to action for Temple on Wednesday night, per Javon Edmunds of Rivals.com.

Impact Reynolds hasn't played since December 10th in Temple's blowout loss to Pennsylvania. Prior to that injury, the big man had started every game for the owls. In the games he's played, Reynolds has put up 11.1 points, 6.3 rebounds and 0.4 assists. His return should help stabilize Temple's front court.

Jamille Reynolds - Currently day-to-day Reynolds (thumb) is day-to-day, 247Sports.com reports.

Impact After helping defeat No. 1 Houston on Sunday, Temple's head coach Aaron McKie told reporters that Reynolds is day-to-day. He began practicing again Monday. After all that, Reynolds' availability status is questionable before the Owls are scheduled to host South Florida on Wednesday.
