To miss rest of season Lykes (ankle) was ruled out for the remainder of the season Saturday.
Impact Lykes played in the first two games of the season, averaging 15.5 points, 5.5 assists, 4.0 rebounds, 2.0 steals and 0.5 blocks over the two games before suffering a serious ankle injury that ended up ending his season. Lykes has the option to return for another free season thanks to pandemic, but it remains to be seen what he'll decide for his future.

Hurricanes' Chris Lykes unlikely to play again this season
Miami Hurricanes coach Jim Larranaga says point guard Chris Lykes is unlikely to play again this season because of an ankle injury that has sidelined him since Dec. 4FEBRUARY 19, 2021 • Associated Press
Unlikely to return this season Coach Jim Larranaga indicated Friday that Lykes (ankle) will not play Saturday and is unlikely to take the floor again during the 2020-21 season, Christopher Stock of 247Sports rep...
Impact Lykes was believed to be a candidate to retake the floor recently, but it appears the senior's ankle issue is serious enough that he may be forced to miss all but the first two games of the 2020-21 campaign. He was off to a hot start once again prior to the injury and figures to play a vital role again next season, assuming he elects to return.

Not ready to return Lykes (ankle) will not be available for Sunday's game against Notre Dame after he tweaked his ankle in practice, Michelle Kaufman of the Miami Herald reports.
Impact Head coach Jim Larranaga mentioned Friday that Lykes had a chance to return for Sunday's game, but he'll continue to be sidelined after he reportedly tweaked his ankle injury in practice. The 5-7 senior hasn't played since Dec. 4 as he'll look to have a better week of practice with the hopes of finally returning for a meeting with Georgia Tech on Jan. 20.

Jim Larranaga hopeful PG Chris Lykes returns against Notre Dame  Jim Larranaga gave an update on the injury status of point guard Chris Lykes.
FEBRUARY 12, 2021 • 247SPORTS.COM
Could return Sunday Coach Jim Larranaga indicated Friday that he hopes to get Lykes (ankle) back soon and that he could return Sunday against Notre Dame, Christopher Stock of 247Sports reports.
Impact Lykes hasn't taken the floor since Dec. 4 but appears to be on the cusp of a return to action. The sooner he's cleared to retake the floor, the better off the senior will be in terms of getting in game shape ahead of the conference tournament. Lykes was a key piece in the first two games of the season, posting 15.5 points, 5.5 assists and 4.0 boards per game, and he should resume starting point guard duties when he's back to 100 percent.

Chris Lykes returns to practice, Hurricanes preparing for No. 16 Virginia Tech Update on Chris Lykes
FEBRUARY 5, 2021 • 247SPORTS.COM
Could return Saturday Lykes (ankle) has participated in practice this week and could retake the floor Saturday against Virginia Tech, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Impact Lykes hasn't seen action since the second game of the year, so the senior's return for the Hurricanes could provide a big boost to the team's backcourt down the stretch. Given the length of his absence, there's a good chance he would see a limited role off the bench to start, but he figures to be in line for a starting role again in the future after turning in 15.5 points, 5.5 assists and 4.0 rebounds over 28.5 minutes per game in his two appearances this season.
