Returns with 17 points Bradshaw recorded 17 points (7-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds and one steal in 25 minutes during Saturday's 78-71 victory over Baylor.

Impact Bradshaw did not play in the win over New Orleans, but returned from the one-game absence to give his best performance of the season. The 7-1 junior set season highs in both points and rebounds as the Tigers defended their homecourt against Baylor. The tall but slight Bradshaw could be a big factor in American Conference play, which starts at the end of 2025.

Should be available Saturday Bradshaw (not injury related) is expected to be available for Memphis' clash with Baylor on Saturday, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Bradshaw didn't play against New Orleans due to a coach's decision, one that appeared to be centered on effort, or a lack thereof. "If guys aren't on the floor, that means they're not giving everything," head coach Penny Hardaway told reporters. Bradshaw will be available for the Tigers, but how much the center plays remains to be seen.

Sits out due to coach's decision Bradshaw didn't play against New Orleans on Wednesday due to a coach's decision, per Jason Munz of The Memphis Commercial Appeal.

Impact More specifically, that coach's decision revolved around Bradshaw's effort, or lack thereof. According to Parth Upadhyaya of DailyMemphian.com, head coach Penny Hardaway didn't exactly mince words: "If guys aren't o the floor, that means they're not giving everything." This was the first game Bradshaw was held out of entirely, although he's been in and out of the starting five for the Tigers. He'll look to get back in his head coach's good graces against Baylor on Saturday.

Scores 14 from bench Bradshaw had 14 points (2-4 FG, 10-10 FT), four rebounds and three steals over 17 minutes during Wednesday's 74-58 win over Southern Illinois.

Impact Bradshaw had started four of Memphis' previous five games, but foul trouble has limited his effectiveness. He had fouled out of the two previous games. The 7-1 junior was able to convert his free throws against the Salukis which bumped his usually meager offensive totals. He has excellent size, but will need to curb his aggressiveness a bit to be effective. The Tigers take on New Orleans on Wednesday.

Out sick Thursday night Bradshaw (illness) won't be available against Northwestern.

Absent from practice Bradshaw (illness) is missing practice for Ohio State, Patrick Murphy of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Bradshaw missed Ohio State's big win over Maryland but returned in the Buckeyes' last outing against Nebraska, playing 14 minutes.

Limited production in start Bradshaw provided two points (1-3 FG), two rebounds and one block over 18 minutes during Sunday's 87-79 loss to Illinois.

Impact Bradshaw picked up the start with starting center Sean Stewart (6.1 ppg, 6.0 rpg) sidelined by an illness, but his final stat line wasn't anything to write home about. He began the year as the starter before facing a multi-week absence due to a school investigation, and the Kentucky transfer hasn't quite found his rhythm since. He has yet to reach double-digit scoring in a single Big Ten game.
