Tabbed questionable Cummings is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against Virginia due to an undisclosed injury.

Impact Cummings hasn't missed a game since Nov. 28, but he's at risk of being sidelined for Tuesday's matchup. The guard may have picked up the injury in Pitt's most recent game, as he played a season-low 12 minutes. In 19 appearances (nine starts) this season, Cummings is averaging 12.5 points and 2.1 assists across 26.2 minutes.

Limited in reserve role Cummings posted two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-1 FT) and one rebound across 12 minutes during Saturday's 63-52 loss to Clemson.

Impact Cummings had been on a bit of a scoring run prior to Saturday, reaching double figures in five of his last six and averaging 16.0 ppg over that span. Despite making three straight starts, he was moved to the bench for this contest in favor of freshman Omari Witherspoon, who logged eight points across 37 minutes. The end result was Cummings playing his lowest minutes total of the season and only getting three shots up. It's unclear why this decision was made, and it seems like the only thing fantasy managers can count on is more volatility moving forward.
