TEXAS TECH RED RAIDERS NEWS

Kevin Obanor - Imposes will in win Obanor notched 19 points (5-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 7-7 FT), seven rebounds and three blocks across 36 minutes during Monday's 74-67 victory over Texas.

Impact Obanor recorded his most blocks of any game this season while also converting his third most free-throw attempts on the year. The 6-foot-8 senior's production has been rather boom or bust this season, though he's largely been a consistent rebounder outside of the Feb. 4 blowout loss to Baylor. Obanor has now averaged 14.7 points and 6.7 rebounds while also converting five of his 12 three-point tries since this defeat to the Bears.

Fardaws Aimaq - Logs 12 points, eight rebounds Aimaq amassed 12 points (6-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt), eight rebounds, three assists and one block over 28 minutes during Monday's 74-67 victory over Texas.

Impact Aimaq averaged 10.0 points and 7.7 rebounds across his first three games started with Texas Tech. He is a quality scoring and rebounding option who should make the Red Raiders much more formidable across their upcoming games, like they were against No. 6 Texas.

Elijah Fisher - Back to bench Fisher is not listed in the starting lineup ahead of Monday's game against Texas.

Impact Fisher will resume his duties off the bench after starting in the teams 71-63 win over Kansas State on Saturday. Fardaws Aimaq is set to return to the starting lineup in Fisher's place.

Fardaws Aimaq - Draws start Monday Aimaq will start for Texas Tech as they play host to Texas on Monday night.

Impact This will be Aimaq's fifth game of the season, and just his third start. The big man hasn't had much of an opportunity this season, but he'll get his chance to make a mark on the big stage against a deep and talented Texas team. Aimaq is averaging 8.0 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.5 assists across his prior four games.

Pop Isaacs - Remains out Monday Isaacs (ankle) was spotted without a uniform in Texas Tech's pregame warmups, per Carlos Silva Jr. of the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal.

Impact Isaacs looks set to miss his sixth straight game as he battles an ankle injury. It continues to be a tough break for the young point guard, who was playing admirably in his freshman season in Lubbock. Isaacs was averaging 11.6 points, 1.9 rebounds and 2.8 assists on the season, starting every game he's been healthy. His next chance to play will come Saturday against West Virginia.

FEBRUARY 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Daniel Batcho - Will not play Monday Batcho (lower body) will not play in Monday's game against Texas, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Batcho is set to miss his second straight game while dealing with a lower body injury. The 6-foot-11 forward leads the team in blocks, averaging 1.7 per game. His next chance to return is Saturday against West Virginia.

FEBRUARY 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

De'Vion Harmon - Continues prolific scoring Saturday Harmon closed with 20 points (7-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-8 FT), three rebounds, four assists and one steal in 31 minutes during Saturday's 71-63 victory over Kansas State.

Impact Harmon logged double-digit points for the seventh game in a row and the 20th time in his 25 starts this season. The 6-foot-2 senior has not provided much of any value as a three-point shooter this season, converting just 24.6 percent of his 2.6 three-point attempts per game. Nevertheless, Harmon has still averaged 13.3 points per game on the year thanks to his much more efficient 44.9 field-goal percentage, and he's averaged 19.7 points per game over the last three outings. Harmon has also posted 2.9 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.8 steals while committing just 1.6 turnovers per contest, making him a very safe and consistent fantasy option.

FEBRUARY 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Lamar Washington - 13 points in short outing Washington accumulated 13 points (4-7 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds, two assists and five steals over 19 minutes during Saturday's 71-63 victory over Kansas State.

Impact Washington moved back to the bench after starting each of the previous two games with starting point guard Pop Isaacs (ankle) sidelined. However, that didn't stop the 6-foot-4 Washington from posting season highs in both points and steals. The freshman didn't put in the cleanest outings over his two previous starts, averaging 4.5 turnovers. He also gave up four more turnovers during Saturday's win, so it's unlikely he'll work his way back into the starting lineup even if Isaacs misses his sixth game in a row Monday versus Texas.

FEBRUARY 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Fardaws Aimaq - Unimpressive across 23 minutes Aimaq (foot) totaled two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 FT), one rebound, two assists, one block and three steals in 23 minutes during Saturday's 71-63 victory over Kansas State.

Impact Aimaq logged the same number of points and turnovers without compensating for them using rebounds. However, the center logging 23 minutes indicates the Red Raiders are alright with him playing a lot. Fantasy managers should not be surprised if Aimaq returns to Texas Tech's starting lineup sooner than later. After his first return this season, the team immediately had him start its next game.

FEBRUARY 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Daniel Batcho - Has lower-body injury Batcho has a lower-body injury, according to Carlos Silva Jr. of the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal.

Impact Previously undisclosed, Batcho's lower-body injury prevented him from playing when Texas Tech hosted Kansas State on Saturday. Currently, his next opportunity to play is when the Red Raiders host Texas on Monday.

FEBRUARY 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Lamar Washington - Removed from starting five Washington is not in the Red Raiders' starting lineup ahead of Saturday's contest versus Kansas State.

Impact Washington has started each of the past two games while point guard Pop Isaacs (ankle) has been sidelined. While Isaacs is set to miss his fifth game in a row Saturday, the 6-foot-4 Washington will return to his role off the bench. In his stead, fellow freshman Elijah Fisher will make his college starting debut against the Wildcats.

FEBRUARY 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Elijah Fisher - Set for starting debut Saturday Fisher is in the starting lineup ahead of Saturday's game against Kansas State.

Impact Fisher has come off the bench in all 20 of his appearances this season, though he's seen an uptick in playing time with 17.0 minutes per game over the last five games. The 6-foot-6 freshman is also averaging 3.6 points and 3.6 rebounds over this span, and he'll now make his way into the starting lineup for the first time in his career as point guard Pop Isaacs (ankle) remains out Saturday. With Fisher promoted into a starting role, Lamar Washington is now set to come off the bench Saturday.

FEBRUARY 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Pop Isaacs - Out again Saturday Isaacs (ankle) will not be available for Saturday's game against Kansas State, Derek Young of On3.com reports.

Impact Isaacs appears set to miss his fifth game in a row while tending to an ankle injury. The 6-foot-2 freshman has averaged 11.6 points, 1.9 rebounds and 2.8 assists across 19 starts this season, and his next chance to suit up will come versus the in-state rival Longhorns on Monday. In Isaacs' absence, Lamar Washington will likely start his third game in a row Saturday. On the bright side, Justin Apodaca of Rivals reported prior to the game that Isaacs was seen shooting in street clothes and was no longer sporting a walking boot. Still, a return Monday seems iffy at best.

Daniel Batcho - Not warming up Batcho (undisclosed) is not warming up ahead of Saturday's game against Kansas State, Jordan Majewski of SBNation.com reports.

Impact Batcho is not participating in pregame warmups, and he is questionable to suit up on Saturday. The 6-foot-11 sophomore has appeared in 21 games this season, logging 8.1 points, six rebounds, 1.4 assists and 1.7 blocks on 24.9 minutes per game.

FEBRUARY 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Fardaws Aimaq - Going through pregame warmups Aimaq (foot) is warming up ahead of Saturday's game against Kansas State, Jordan Majewski of SBNation.com reports.

Impact Aimaq has missed all but three games this season due to injury, including each of the last five games for the Red Raiders. However, it appears he could be in line to return to the court given his ability to participate in warmups one hour ahead of Saturday's 7:00 p.m. ET tipoff. If not, Aimaq's next chance to suit up would come against Texas on Monday.

FEBRUARY 9, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Fardaws Aimaq - DNP at Oklahoma State Aimaq (foot) did not play during Texas Tech's 71-68 loss Wednesday at Oklahoma State.

Impact Aimaq sat out Texas Tech's five games in between Jan. 24 and Feb. 9. Currently, his next opportunity to return is when the team hosts Kansas State on Saturday. Aimaq's availability status continues being doubtful though.

FEBRUARY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Pop Isaacs - DNP at Oklahoma State Isaacs (ankle) did not play during Texas Tech's 71-68 loss Wednesday at Oklahoma State.

Impact Isaacs was and is still wearing a walking boot around his right foot. Because the injured ankle continues to not improve, he will be out indefinitely.

Lamar Washington - Team-high five assists Washington totaled seven points (3-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), three rebounds, five assists and one block in 29 minutes during Saturday's 89-62 loss to Baylor.

Impact Washington made just his second start of the season for the Red Raiders, as point guard Pop Isaacs sat out his third game in a row with an ankle injury. As a result, the freshman reserve played at least 26 minutes for the second game in a row while also narrowly pacing the team in assists during yet another blowout loss for Texas Tech. Washington has averaged 3.3 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.9 assists while playing an average of 15.5 minutes per contest. Therefore, it's likely his production will still remain relatively limited even if he does continue to start Wednesday at Oklahoma State.

FEBRUARY 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Daniel Batcho - Plays 12 minutes off the bench Batcho contributed two points (1-1 FG), one rebound, two assists and one steal across 12 minutes during Saturday's 89-62 loss to Baylor.

Impact Batcho was active for Saturday's game despite sustaining a knee injury in Monday's loss to Iowa State. However, he did not fulfill his usual spot in the starting lineup, and he was limited to his fewest minutes since the game against the Cyclones. In the eight games prior to his injury, Batcho averaged just 6.2 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.5 assists. Therefore, it's likely the France native will continue to put up limited production even if he does return to the starting lineup in place of injured center Fardaws Aimaq (foot). Texas Tech's next game will come against Oklahoma State on Wednesday.

FEBRUARY 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Jaylon Tyson - Double-double in defeat Tyson finished Saturday's 89-62 loss to Baylor with 19 points (8-14 FG, 3-6 3Pt), 10 rebounds, two assists and one steal over 36 minutes.

Impact Tyson posted his third double-double of the season as the Red Raiders were once resoundingly defeated by a Big 12 opponent. Texas Tech is now 1-9 against its conference opponents, though the 6-foot-7 sophomore has been one of the team's most consistent players during this span. Tyson has averaged 9.6 points and 7.6 rebounds to go along with 1.5 steals and 1.8 assists in conference play. He still isn't producing at the same top-end scoring as fellow forward Kevin Obanor, though Tyson's consistency on the boards still makes him a rather solid game-to-game option in Texas Tech's starting lineup.
