Officially ruled out Rapp (knee) won't play in Saturday's game against Stanford.

Impact Rapp suffered a sprained knee earlier in the week but attempted to see how he felt during warmups and ultimately won't be available for Saturday's contest. With both he and Isaac Bonton (ankle) sidelined, the Cougars will likely feature a backcourt of Noah Williams and TJ Bamba with Myles Warren backing them up.

Warming up Saturday Rapp (knee) is warming up ahead of Saturday's game against Stanford, Theo Lawson of The Spokane Spokesman-Review reports.

Impact Rapp is dealing with a knee sprain but appears to be attempting to give it a go ahead of Saturday's tip against the Cardinal. With Isaac Bonton (ankle) set to miss his third straight game, the Cougars will definitely need Rapp's presence in the backcourt and he could possibly earn a second straight start if head coach Kyle Smith feels comfortable putting him out there.

Sitting again Saturday Bonton (ankle) will miss Saturday's game against Stanford, Theo Lawson of The Spokane Spokesman-Review reports.

Impact Bonton is set for his third consecutive absence as he continues to recover from an ankle injury he suffered late in the Feb. 13 contest against USC. Ryan Rapp, who started in his place against Washington before missing the last game as well, is warming up and may be set to serve as the primary point guard again Saturday. Noah Williams and TJ Bamba are also options to see some action on the ball.

Questionable for Saturday Rapp missed Thursday's 82-51 win over Cal due to a knee sprain and head coach Kyle Smith listed him as questionable for Saturday's meeting with Stanford, Ryan Root of The Daily Eve...

Impact Rapp must've suffered the injury during practice leading up to Thursday because he started and played 28 minutes in Monday's narrow loss to Washington. Based on coach Smith's comments, it doesn't sound like Rapp will be forced to miss too much time but his potential absence could open up the door for TJ Bamba and Myles Warren to get some increased minutes once again.

Erupts for 32 points against Cal Williams recorded 32 points (12-20 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT), nine rebounds and seven assists in 31 minutes during Thursday's 82-51 victory over California.

Impact Williams went off for a career-high 32 points on the strength of four three-pointers and an efficient 60 percent shooting night. With Isaac Bonton sidelined for a second-straight game, Williams took advantage of the opportunity and was only one rebound and three assists shy of a triple-double. His workload will decrease when Bonton returns, which may come Saturday against Stanford.
