Active Tuesday Arceneaux (Achillies) will be available for Tuesday's showdown with Alabama, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Arceneaux, who was dealing with some Achillies soreness this week at practice, will not miss any time due to the injury. The 6-foot-6 sophomore will look to keep his positive momentum going after averaging 9.5 points, 2.8 rebounds, 0.8 assists and 1.3 steals across the Cougars' first four games (19 minutes per game).

Exits practice Sunday Arceneaux (Achilles) exited Houston's practice Sunday, per Joseph Duarte of the Houston Chronicle.

Impact Arceneaux was dealing with soreness in his Achilles as a result of the surgery he underwent last December. While it remains to be seen if the soreness is cause for concern, Arceneaux's status for Tuesday's matchup versus Alabama is now up in the air.

Adds four steals off bench Arceneaux contributed 12 points (5-7 FG, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and four steals across 23 minutes during Friday's 80-44 win over Hofstra.

Impact Arceneaux saw an extended opportunity for the second-consecutive game, finishing second on the team with 23 minutes during Houston's blowout win over Hofstra. The sophomore guard took advantage of his extra time on the floor, shooting 71.4 percent on seven shots while setting a new career high with four thefts. Arceneaux is capable of producing fantasy-relevant numbers but saw his shortest time on the floor come during Houston's closest game against Auburn, not a good sign for his minutes floor moving forward as the games become more competitive. It appears that it will take in injury for Arceneaux to be able to rise to the fringe of the fantasy radar.

Paces team off bench Arceneaux provided 14 points (4-14 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal across 24 minutes during Wednesday's 91-45 win over Louisiana.

Impact Arceneaux saw extended run off the bench and hoisted up 14 shots while pacing the Cougars with 14 points. The sophomore, who spent the offseason recovering from a Achilles injury suffered last December, was not ultra-efficient with his scoring, including shooting just 2-for-8 from behind the arc but added five rebounds, a couple of assists and a steal across his 24 minutes of court time, doubling the time he played during the team's previous game against Auburn. Arceneaux is playing an important role off the bench for Houston but is much more likely to see 12-15 minutes most nights as opposed to the extra time he saw Wednesday thanks to the uncompetitive nature of the contest.

Finally back Arceneaux (Achilles) logged 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two steals across 16 minutes during Houston's exhibition game Sunday against Texas...

Impact For the first time in the 2024 calendar year, Arceneaux logged some in-game action and showed no rust of a player returning from a long-term Achilles injury. At the very least, he will look to continue his regular role from Houston's 2023-24 season. Before it ended prematurely, he was a highly active role player bordering on sixth-man duties.

OCTOBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Still not fully back Arceneaux is not fully back from the Achilles injury he suffered in December, according to Joseph Duarte of The Houston Chronicle.

Impact Back in July, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reported that Arceneaux was fully cleared from his Achilles injury. But fast forward to more than three months later, and it appears the sophomore either suffered a setback or had his clearance announcement publicized a little too prematurely. For now, Arceneaux's injury status is questionable as the Houston team prepares for its exhibition game Oct. 27 against Texas A&M.

OCTOBER 9, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Granted NCAA hardship waiver Arceneaux has been granted an NCAA hardship waiver for the 2023-24 season, giving him an extra year of eligibility, Joseph Duarte of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Impact Arceneaux missed most of last season after he tore his Achilles in December, but the NCAA has granted him an extra year of eligibility following that season-ending injury. Now that he is fully healthy, he will compete in the 2024-25 season as a sophomore with three years of eligibility remaining.

Impact Arceneaux earned his first collegiate start in the AAC championship game Sunday with Marcus Sasser unable to go due to a groin injury. The 6-5 freshman played a career-high 35 minutes, which was just the fifth time all year he's played more than 20 minutes. Arceneaux averages four points and 2.5 rebounds across 14.5 minutes per contest this season but stay heavily involved in this one if the Cougars are able to run up the score on the Norse.

Makes first collegiate start Arceneaux amassed nine points (3-10 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds and one assist over 35 minutes during Sunday's 75-65 loss to Memphis.

Impact Arceneaux made the first start of his collegiate career, finishing with nine points and three rebounds during Sunday's AAC title game loss to Memphis. The 6-foot-5 freshman has appeared in 31 games this season, averaging four points, 2.5 rebounds, 0.6 assists and 0.7 steals on 14.5 minutes per game. Arceneaux has logged an average of 31.5 minutes across Houston's last two contests, and if Marcus Sasser is inactive to start the tournament, Arceneaux is likely to remain a heavy contributor.

MARCH 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Part of starting lineup Sunday Arceneaux is part of the Cougars' starting lineup Sunday against Memphis, according to their Twitter account.

Impact Marcus Sasser will not be part of their starting lineup, giving Arceneaux the opportunity. What an opportunity it is as well, as both Houston and Memphis compete for the 2023 AAC Tournament championship during his first game started.

Plays nine minutes Arceneaux (ankle) ended with two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound and two steals across nine minutes during Sunday's 72-64 victory over Memphis.

Impact Fortunately for Arceneaux, he sat out only once because of the ankle injury he suffered when Houston hosted Tulsa on Feb. 8. The freshman can continue to be a healthy and serviceable backup, as his career 14.1-minute average can attest.

FEBRUARY 19, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Iffy for Sunday Houston head coach Kelvin Sampson said Arceneaux (ankle) is a game-time decision for Sunday's tilt with Memphis, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact The reserve forward was sidelined for Houston's 80-65 win over SMU on Thursday, but he looks like he may still have a chance at being cleared ahead of Sunday's 3 p.m. ET opening tip. Arceneaux has appeared in 23 games this season and is averaging 4.4 points, 2.8 rebounds, 0.7 three-pointers, 0.7 steals and 0.6 assists in 14.1 minutes per contest.

Doubtful at SMU Arceneaux (ankle) is doubtful Thursday at SMU.

Impact Houston's head coach Kelvin Sampson said he does not think Arceneaux will play on Thursday. But fortunately for the injured freshman, he is expected to "be back sooner than later" from his injured ankle. Sampson did not fully rule out Arceneaux for Thursday, so him not logging any absences is still a possibility.

Suffers ankle injury Arceneaux suffered an ankle injury during the Cougars' 80-42 win Wednesday versus Tulsa.

Impact Arceneaux rolled one of his ankles during the Cougars game's second half. Currently, their next matchup is scheduled at SMU on Feb. 16. Arceneaux will receive more than a week of rest before the Cougars play again.

Arceneaux is a former four star recruit shooting 41.2 percent from the field this season.
