Out for exhibition game Mallory (lower body) is out for Sunday's exhibition game with Vanderbilt.

Impact Preseason is back for Virginia, and the Cavaliers will operate a three-game schedule before their regular season begins in November. The first of the games is Sunday with Vanderbilt, and his next opportunity to play will be Oct. 9 against Richmond. Considering that a healthy Mallory is projected to break out for Virginia this season, him starting off hurt with a lower-body injury will not give him an immediate chance to shine.

Glue guy for Virginia Mallory supplied five points (2-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), four rebounds, five assists and two steals across 24 minutes during Saturday's 72-59 victory over Syracuse.

Impact On the surface, Mallory's role as a sixth-man, and the fact he rarely lights things up in the scoring department, would suggest limited fantasy utility. However, he's been incredibly consistent for the Cavaliers in essentially all categories, as he's recorded multiple rebounds and multiple assists in six consecutive games. Saturday's down scoring day snapped a streak of four straight games in double figures, but he still collected a pair of steals, bringing his total to eight over his past three games. Simply put, Mallory is just consistent enough to stay on the fantasy radar, even beyond ACC-only formats.
