Trey Thomas - Dealing with knee injury Vanderbilt coach Jerry Stackhouse said that Thomas will miss some time with a sprained MCL, Robbie Weinstein of 247Sports reports.

Impact Thomas was initially ruled out ahead of Tuesday's loss to Temple for undisclosed reasons, though this appears to be due to a sprained MCL sustained at some point since last Friday's loss to Southern Mississippi. While the severity of this injury is still unknown, the junior guard will likely sit out at least a week or two given the typical recovery timeline for such issues. In Thomas' absence, expect Ezra Manjon to take over as the Commodores' full-time starting point guard for the time being.

Colin Smith - Likely to miss multiple games Vanderbilt coach Jerry Stackhouse said that Smith will miss some time with a wrist injury, Robbie Weinstein of 247Sports reports.

Impact Smith was ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game against Temple for undisclosed reasons, though he appears to be dealing with a wrist injury that should keep him out moving forward. While the exact nature and severity of this issue are both unclear, the freshman forward most likely will not play this Friday against Morehead State. Smith logged the first start of his career during last Friday's loss to Southern Mississippi, so expect senior Jordan White to fill in for the Commodores' frontcourt for the time being.

Paul Lewis - Will see minutes at PG Lewis appears to have taken hold of the backup PG job in late-October, Robbie Weinstein of 247Sports reports.

Impact Lewis is a three-star prospect that made an impression during the team's offseason trip to France, especially with respect to his outside shooting capability. Even projected starter Ezra Manjon acknowledged that he will have a role this year while showering him with additional praise, stating "He's really fast, can shoot it really well, really skilled." Lewis still has some steps to clear in terms of his physical development that may limit his overall minutes this season, but he appears to be worthy of the long-term fantasy radar in deeper formats that heavily feature the SEC.

Ezra Manjon - Set to take reins at PG Manjon is in line to take over as the starting point guard and primary ball-handler in 2022-23 at Vanderbilt, Robbie Weinstein of 247Sports reports.

Impact Manjon expects to form a 1-2 punch at the point guard position with freshman Paul Lewis, though the more experienced Manjon -- three seasons as a starter at UC-Davis -- should get the starting nod out of the gates. He was a score-first point guard with the Aggies after posting back-to-back seasons with 15.0 ppg or greater, but with the move to a power conference, Manjon appears to already have an understanding that he'll be used more to set up his talented supporting cast.
