Good to go Wedesday Swartz (ankle) is ready to play Wednesday at DePaul.

Impact Swartz is absent from the Blue Jays' injury report Wednesday night, meaning the sophomore guard will return after sitting out the Feb. 7 win over Seton Hall with a tweaked ankle. Prior to that absence, he'd started the past 14 games, averaging 15.3 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.8 assists in that span.

Sits out with tweaked ankle Swartz tweaked his ankle in Creighton's Feb. 4 loss to Georgetown, and sat out Saturday's 69-68 win over Seton Hall as a result, per Jacob Padilla of Hurrdat Sports.

Impact Swartz was reportedly planning on giving it a go Saturday against Seton Hall, but the guard was hampered in pre-game warmups and consequently sat out his first game since Nov. 21. The sophomore, who averages 11.3 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.5 assists, will look to return Wednesday at DePaul.

Wins Wednesday's game at the buzzer Swartz totaled 16 points (6-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and one steal across 29 minutes during Wednesday's 94-93 win over Xavier.

Impact With his team down two points, Swartz drew a shooting foul with four seconds remaining with a chance to send the game into overtime. He sunk the first free throw but then missed the second. However, he grabbed his own rebound and then kissed the ball off the glass at the buzzer to secure the victory for the Bluejays. It was a special moment for the sophomore, especially as a way to bounce back from his very poor shooting performance Friday. It marked his eighth game of the season with at least 16 points, all of which have come since Dec. 7.
