DJ Rodman - 16 minutes in returnRodman closed Wednesday's 71-54 win over Utah with zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and four rebounds across 16 minutes.
ImpactRodman had missed the last two games due to COVID-19 protocols. He was unable to get on the scoreboard, but did pull down four rebounds. Rodman is not going to play a big role this season for Washington State.

Branden Carlson - Bench role in returnCarlson ended with eight points (3-4 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and one block across 19 minutes during Wednesday's 71-54 loss to Washington State.
ImpactCarlson was unable to play his usual 20-plus minutes in his return, which isn't particularly surprising considering the nature of his recent absences and the fac that he hasn't suited up since Jan. 6. He still managed to near double digits in the scoring column and added in some rebounds to give him a decent day overall. Carlson should retake his spot in the starting five soon.

Dusan Mahorcic - Gets another startMahorcic ended with four points (2-3 FG), one rebound and one assist over 10 minutes during Wednesday's 71-54 loss to Washington State.
ImpactMahorcic started a second straight game in favor of Lahat Thioune but only logged 10 minutes as Utah gave significant playing time to their bench. The center has been an efficient rebounder for the Utes, averaging 11.3 rebounds per 40 minutes. With Branden Carlson healthy, Mahorcic will likely move back to the bench going forward.

TJ Bamba - Scores 10 in bench roleBamba racked up 10 points (2-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT) and four rebounds in 18 minutes during Wednesday's 71-54 win over Utah.
ImpactBamba came off the bench for the first time since Dec. 4 in favor Andrej Jakimovski and efficiently scored 10 points on only three field goal attempts. It's unlikely he'll return to the starting lineup, however, as Jakimovski is enjoying a breakthrough sophomore campaign. Through seven Pac-12 contests, Bamba is averaging 7.6 points on 42 percent shooting.
