TEXAS A&M AGGIES NEWS

Wildens Leveque - Underperforms in loss Leveque totaled two points (1-3 FG) and four rebounds over nine minutes during Sunday's 81-75 loss to Memphis.

Impact The senior started for the Aggies but played just none minutes and totaled two points in Sunday's loss to Memphis. Leveque is averaging just 2.8 points and 3.7 rebounds this season as a nine game starter. Expect a possible lineup change moving forward if Leveque continues to underperform for Texas A&M.

Manny Obaseki - 10 points off the bench Obaseki ended Wednesday's 89-64 victory over DePaul with 10 points (4-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and two assists over 22 minutes.

Impact The junior played in a season-high 22 minutes where he scored 10 points off the bench in Wednesday's win over DePaul. In the nine games played this season, Obaskei is averaging 4.6 points and 1.3 rebounds in 11.3 minutes played per game. Expect the guard to continue to see a bench role moving forward for the Aggies.

Tyrece Radford - Not warming up Wednesday Radford (undisclosed) is not warming up ahead of Wednesday's game at Virginia, Mike Barber of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.

Impact Barber reports that he was told Radford was considered a game-time decision, but has not seen him take the court for warmups. It's a bad sign for Radford's chances to play after he missed Sunday's contest versus Iowa State. In six games this season he is averaging 13.0 points, 4.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 28.7 minutes per game.

Henry Coleman - Warming up Wednesday Coleman (ankle) is warming up ahead of Wednesday's game at Virginia, Mike Barber of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.

Impact Coleman is on the court warming up ahead of Wednesday's matchup with Virginia, a promising sign that he will be able to return after a one-game absence. In his six games prior to his ankle injury he averaged 14.2 points, 8.3 rebounds and 1.2 blocks in 27.8 minutes per game.

Solomon Washington - Season-high 18 points in win Washington closed Sunday's 73-69 win over Iowa State with 18 points (6-9 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-5 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one steal across 30 minutes.

Impact The sophomore scored a season-high 18 points in Sunday's win over Iowa State. With a couple players not being available for the Aggies, Washington was able to step up and shoot 66.7 percent from the field while also hitting three of his four shots from beyond the arc despite averaging just 7.0 points on the season. Expect Washington to continue to see an increased role on the offensive side of the ball as the season goes on.

NOVEMBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Wade Taylor - Valiant effort in defeat Taylor supplied 35 points (12-26 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 6-7 FT), three rebounds and five assists over 34 minutes during Friday's 96-89 loss to Florida Atlantic.

Impact Expectations were always lofty for the SEC Preseason Player of the Year, and so far -- at least from a fantasy perspective -- Taylor has delivered. He hasn't scored less than 15 in a game all season and has been particularly effective in the ESPN Events Invitational, logging performances of 23 and 35 points. The junior guard remains an elite fantasy asset for a Texas A&M squad that should remain ranked next week despite Friday's defeat.

Julius Marble - Not warming up Marble (personal) is not on the court for warmups in advance of Monday's season opener against TAMU-Commerce, Travis L. Brown of The Bryan-College Station Eagle reports.

Impact It appears Marble will remain away from the team, as was the case in exhibition play. Look for Henry Coleman, Wildens Leveque and Solomon Washington to take on plenty of frontcourt minutes in his stead, with Marble's next chance to play coming Friday at Ohio State.

Henry Coleman - Almost double-doubles in exhibition Coleman logged 16 points (7-14 FG, 2-4 FT), nine rebounds, two steals and one assist across his 35 minutes during the Aggies' exhibition game Sunday against Texas Tech.

Impact Coleman was only one rebound short of a double-double during the 2023-24 Aggies' last preseason game. He logged five double-doubles during the Aggies' 2022-23 season. While it should not be surprising if Coleman cannot regularly record double-doubles, the big man is expected to replicate his sophomore and junior seasons, when he logged at least nine points and five rebounds for both.

Wade Taylor - Scores 25 during exhibition game Taylor logged 25 points (5-13 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 11-14 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal across 25 minutes during the Aggies' exhibition game Sunday against Texas Tech.

Impact Sunday may not have perfectly exemplified why Taylor was recently named SEC Preseason Player of the Year but showed what he can do and how much the Aggies are willing to depend on him. After all, Taylor significantly improved as a scorer during his 2022-23 season. The college junior went from averaging 8.2 as a freshman to 16.3 as a sophomore. Volume is already there for Taylor. Add that along with better consistency, and then Taylor is easily one of the SEC's best scorers, without any doubt.

Julius Marble - DNP against Texas Tech Marble (personal) did not play during the Aggies' exhibition game Sunday against Texas Tech, according to Travis L. Brown of The Bryan-College Station Eagle.

Impact According to the Aggies' head coach Buzz Williams, Marble is unable to participate in team activities (including exhibition or regular-season games) while he undergoes a "university process" apparently causing his questionable availability. It will remain such going into Nov. 6, when the Aggies are scheduled to host Texas A&M-Commerce for their opener.

OCTOBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Wildens Leveque - Logs three minutes Sunday Leveque (knee) logged three minutes off the bench and didn't record a single stat in Sunday's 89-84 exhibition loss against Texas Tech.

Impact Leveque didn't do much in the three minutes he was out there, but at least he showed he was healthy, meaning he should see time in the season opener against Texas A&M-Commerce on Nov. 6.

Julius Marble - Away from team Marble is unable to partake in team activities as he goes through "university processes," Travis L. Brown of The Bryan-College Station Eagle reports.

Impact It's unclear what exactly Marble is going through right now, as Texas A&M head coach Buzz Williams said he's unable to comment any further on the forward's situation. As the season creeps closer, with the Aggies' first game on Nov. 6, Marble's status will be something to monitor. The big man was a big part of Texas A&M's front court last season, starting 30 games and putting up 9.1 points and 4.1 rebounds.
