Kerr Kriisa - Doubtful to play Tuesday Kriisa (shoulder) is doubtful for Tuesday's game against West Virginia.

Impact Kriisa left Saturday's loss to Houston with a separated shoulder, and the doubtful tag suggests the star guard might not be available for this contest. If that's the case, look for Jizzle James to take his place as the Bearcats' starting floor general.

Kerr Kriisa - Leaves game with separated shoulder Kriisa left Cincinnati's 67-60 loss to Houston with a separated shoulder, per Neil Meyer of Front Office Sports.

Impact Kriisa played just seven minutes in the Bearcats' loss. The forward reportedly tried to fight through the issue, but was unable to return to the game, and the program has some concern over the severity of the issue. As such, Kriisa is a firm question mark to return on Jan. 6 against West Virginia.

Baba Miller grabs career-high 21 rebounds, Cincinnati defeats Lipscomb 89-62

Baba Miller hauled in a career-high 21 rebounds and scored 11 points, Moustapha Thiam scored 18 points, and Cincinnati cruised past Lipscomb, 89-62 on Monday

DECEMBER 30, 2025 • Associated Press

Sencire Harris - Logs seven points in first start Harris closed with seven points (3-5 FG, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block across 19 minutes during Monday's 89-62 victory over Lipscomb.

Impact Harris got his first start of the season after a ten-point performance last week, but he wasn't as impressive as probably hoped in the win over Lipscomb. Still, he didn't need to be a scoring machine with the Bearcats having no problem getting a win. It's unknown if the junior guard will stay in the starting lineup for a tough game this Saturday versus Houston.

DECEMBER 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Tyler McKinley - Expected back Saturday McKinley (lower body) will have a chance to return Saturday against Houston, Keegan Nickoson of BearcatJournal.com reports.

Impact McKinley, who warmed up but ultimately didn't appear Monday against Lipscomb, will have his next chance to return against the Cougars this weekend. Head coach Wes Miller is hopeful to have the 6-foot-9 freshman, who is averaging two points, 3.2 rebounds and one assist on 14.2 minutes per game (10 games), back this weekend.
