Return showing fizzles out Shannon (back) produced two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt) over 18 minutes during Saturday's 62-51 loss to Kansas State.

Impact While Shannon was on the floor for the Red Raiders, he was far from his usual self, launching only three shots over 18 minutes while posting a relatively empty stat line overall. He could be displaying some rust after the long layoff and will aim for a better effort Tuesday versus Iowa State.

Not in starting lineup Shannon (back) isn't among the starters for Saturday's game against Kansas State.

Impact Shannon indicated Friday that he's set to rejoin the action Saturday, though his extended absence and omission from the starting lineup likely equate to a limited role in what would be his first appearance since Dec. 14. Shannon figures to rejoin the starting five when back up to speed and enters Saturday averaging 14.3 points, 3.2 boards and 2.2 assists over 26.5 minutes per game.

Not in same uniform as teammates Shannon (back) is taking part in the final layup lines but isn't wearing the same shorts as the rest of his teammates, Carlos Silva Jr. of the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal reports.

Impact While this doesn't officially rule Shannon out for Thursday's game, it certainly seems like a sign that he is unlikely to take the floor, barring a late change into game shorts. If that's indeed the case, Shannon would be targeting a return Saturday against Kansas State, which was the initial expectation for his next appearance in action.

Impact A report from Silva Wednesday suggested Shannon would most likely be aiming for a return Saturday rather than Thursday, but the junior forward's presence in warmups could be a signal that he has made some progress over the past 24 hours. It remains to be seen whether or not he will actually enter the game Thursday.

Not in uniform Tuesday Shannon (back) isn't in uniform for Tuesday's game versus Baylor, NTXT Sports reports.

Impact Shannon's status went largely unreported leading up to the contest, but it appears he's in line to miss his sixth consecutive game due to the back issue.

Set to be a GTD Shannon (back) will be a game-time decision for Tuesday's game against Baylor, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Shannon will be hoping to avoid missing his sixth straight game due to a back injury.

Head coach mark Adams said after the game that Shannon was 50-50 for the game but just didn't feel like he was anywhere close to 100 percent. It will definitely be worth monitoring to see how Shannon feels over the next few days with Eastern Washington on tap Dec. 22.
