Left out of starting five McKissic is not in the starting lineup Sunday against Troy.

Impact McKissic had started all five games he appeared in this season, so his absence from the lineup Sunday may be a cause for concern. He did leave last Wednesday's game against Ohio State with an apparent hamstring injury, though it wasn't thought to be much of an issue given he returned to the contest. It would be surprising to see his minutes limited Sunday, however, as the Gators are favored heavily in this contest. Phlandrous Fleming will get the nod in his stead.

Finishes with 12 points McKissic closed Sunday's 71-55 win over Florida State with 12 points (4-9 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two steals over 29 minutes.

Impact The senior bounced backed from a poor offensive outing in the season opener with a double-figure scoring performance against the Gators' in-state rival Sunday. The senior posted just four points across one-of-five shooting against Elon on Tuesday. McKissic has so far contributed in every major statistical category in each game to begin the year.
