Expected to play Saturday Carter (ribs) is expected to play during DePaul's game Saturday at Providence, 247Sports.com reports.

Impact While not part of DePaul's starting lineup Saturday, Carter is expected to play at Providence. The redshirt senior's availability should improve the Blue Demons' chances of winning there. After all, Carter is averaging 11.8 points and 3.7 assists this season, the latter currently a career best.

Set to miss a few weeks Carter (ribs) will not suit up for at least two weeks, beginning with Saturday's outing against Creighton, 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Carter will miss extended time after sustaining a rib injury last week. The 6-foot-2 senior has started in 17 games this season, averaging 11.8 points, 2.9 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 0.6 steals on 34.4 minutes per game. Carter's current timetable sets him up for a return against UConn on Feb. 14, but his status remains uncertain. Carter's absence will likely pave the way for KT Raimey and Jaden Henley to see additional playing time for the Blue Demons.

Leads skeleton crew Carter produced 18 points (5-11 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 5-7 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and one block across 35 minutes during Tuesday's 82-74 loss to Purdue Fort Wayne.

Impact Carter posted a team-high 18 points while co-leading DePaul in rebounding. Carter averaged 9.8 points on 47.1 percent shooting at South Carolina last season and is a candidate to improve on those numbers with a serious opportunity to step into a large role for DePaul. Incumbent starter Jalen Terry (ankle) remains in a walking boot.

Moving on from South Carolina Carter (knee) entered the transfer portal Monday and is set to leave the South Carolina program, Jeff Borzello of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Before missing the final six games of the 2022-23 season with a knee injury, Carter made 25 starts for the Gamecocks and averaged 9.8 points, 2.0 three-pointers, 1.8 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 30.8 minutes per game. The 6-foot-3 guard, who spent two years at Murray State before joining South Carolina ahead of the 2021-22 campaign, will have one final year of eligibility to use at his next school.

Doesn't travel to SEC Tournament Carter (knee) didn't travel to Wednesday's game versus Mississippi, Michael Lananna of the Charlotte Observer reports.

Impact Carter hasn't played since Feb. 14 due to a knee injury. Since he didn't travel with the team, his season is likely over. Carter averaged 9.8 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 30.8 minutes across his 25 appearances this season.

Out Wednesday Carter (knee) will be unavailable for Wednesday's matchup with Alabama, Collyn Taylor of On3Sports reports.

Impact Carter is set to miss his second-consecutive game with a knee injury as South Carolina faces off with Alabama on Wednesday. The 6-foot-3 guard has started in 25 games this season, logging 9.8 points, 1.8 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 0.6 steals on 30.8 minutes per game. Carter will have his next opportunity to return during Saturday's game against Tennessee.

FEBRUARY 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Doubtful Wednesday Carter (knee) is unlikely to play Wednesday against Alabama, Michael Lananna reports.

Impact Carter is in jeopardy of missing his second straight game due to a knee injury that occurred earlier last week. The senior is averaging 9.8 points and 1.8 rebounds this season. If the guard misses Wednesday's game, his next chance to return would be Saturday against Tennessee.

FEBRUARY 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out Saturday Carter will sit out Saturday's game at Louisiana State, David Cloninger of The Charleston Post and Courier reports.

Impact Carter has a knee injury and will be replaced in favor of GG Jackson. It is unclear how long the injured guard will be out, but his next opportunity to return is against Alabama on Wednesday.

Non-factor Saturday Carter posted zero points (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and four assists across 18 minutes during Saturday's 65-63 loss to Arkansas.

Impact It was reported earlier this week that Carter was dealing with tendinitis, and it's likely no coincidence that he's been held scoreless in back-to-back games, logging a combined 30 minutes between the two. It seems he'll continue to start and be available for the Gamecocks, but the senior's production should be expected to slip.

FEBRUARY 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Saturday Carter (tendinitis) is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Arkansas, Michael Lananna reports.

Impact Carter is playing through some tendinitis but it will not force him to miss any time currently. Carter notably only played 12 minutes versus Mississippi State earlier in the week and it's very possible he will still be limited despite remaining in the starting five.

FEBRUARY 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Working through tendinitis Head coach Lamont Paris said Tuesday that Carter has had some tendinitis issues, Michael Lananna reports.

Impact Carter, who's started and received at least 22 minutes in every game he's suited up for this season up until Tuesday night, was on the court for just 12 minutes versus the Bulldogs. It's since been revealed that the 6-foot-3 senior is dealing with tendinitis and that was the reason why he saw such limited action during Tuesday's 66-51 defeat. It's currently uncertain how much Carter will be held back moving forward, but expect him to once again take on a lesser role in Saturday's matchup against Arkansas, given he's made available.
