Available despite injured nose Thompson will be available across Minnesota's future games despite his nose injury, according to Andy Greder of the Twin Cities Pioneer Press.

Impact Thompson broke his nose during Minnesota's game Saturday at Northwestern. Fortunately for him, he will not need surgery and wear a protective mask instead. Thompson is expected to continue being Minnesota's tertiary center.

Impact Thompson will come off the bench in favor of freshman big man, Pharrel Payne, who is making his first career start. He should still see relatively healthy minutes, as starting center, Dawson Garcia (ankle) is again sidelined.

Plays 37 minutes Thompson logged eight points (4-13 FG, 0-5 3Pt), eight rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal across 37 minutes during Minnesota's 61-57 loss Wednesday versus Indiana.

Impact Thompson is expected to continue logging a great dose of minutes while Dawson Garcia (ankle) and Pharrel Payne (concussion) recover from their respective injuries. That was what happened during November, at a time when Thompson was favored over Josh Ola-Joseph and played in place of an injured Jamison Battle.

Logs start vs Indiana Thompson will start for the Golden Gophers as they host Indiana, Zach Osterman of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Impact Thompson hasn't started since late November, but will return to the starting five against Indiana Wednesday night. The forward has seen a decrease in his minutes as the season wears on, but with both Dawson Garcia and Pharrel Payne out for Minnesota, Thompson is essentially forced to play. The seven-foot sophomore has barely made an impact when he has been on the court, averaging 1.6 points and 2.0 boards.

Plays final minute in loss Thompson (illness) returned to action Thursday and hauled in a rebound in the final minute of play during a 90-75 loss to Michigan.

Impact Thompson was uncertain to play after missing action against Purdue on Sunday with an illness. He warmed up before the game but only entered for the final minute with both teams trying to run out the clock. The 7-0 sophomore has been a regular starter when fully healthy but that hasn't translated to a greater role, as he's averaging 2.6 points and 2.3 rebounds in 13.3 minutes per contest. It's unclear what kind of role he may have Sunday when Mississippi State comes to town.

Impact Thompson appears like he could be giving it a go after missing Sunday's tilt with Purdue. The 7-0 sophomore has started all seven games he's been active for but will come off the bench Thursday if he ends up being available. He's averaged 2.6 points and 2.3 rebounds in 13.3 minutes per game through the first month of the season.

Quiet in win Thompson chipped in two points (1-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt), five rebounds and three assists over 19 minutes during Friday's 72-54 win over St. Francis Brooklyn.

Impact Thompson has earned a starting role but a meager five total points and seven rebounds through two games isn't much to shout about. As he's made just two shots from the field in nine attempts, Thompson won't be able to do much if he can't work out his shooting by conference play.

Career-best performance Thompson chipped in 10 points (4-7 FG, 2-3 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal over 40 minutes during Saturday's 68-65 victory over Rutgers.

Impact The Gophers were incredibly short-handed Saturday, especially in the frontcourt, as five players were out -- three of which were starters. That list included starting center Eric Curry and starting power forward Jamison Battle, who were both dealing with undisclosed injuries. That left a heavy dose of minutes to Thompson, a 6-11 freshman who had previously registered a season-high of 11 minutes. Thompson had hardly been a rotation player, even in non-conference play, but he's suddenly thrusted into a significant role due to the injury situation in what was already a thin position group. It's about to get a lot tougher for the roster's only true center, however, as matchups against Ohio State, Wisconsin and Purdue await.

First collegiate start Thompson will make his first career start Saturday for Minnesota as they take on Rutgers, Marcus Fuller of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Impact Minnesota is without a multitude of players today against Rutgers, and Thompson is set to start in place of Eric Curry. The 7-foot freshman center has played in seven games for the Golden Gophers, averaging 1.3 points and 0.7 rebounds on 3.7 minutes per game. Thompson will have his first big opportunity for Minnesota against Rutgers.
