Logs nine minutes Thursday Fredrick (lower body) posted three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 3Pt) and one steal during Thursday's win over Nebraska.

Impact Fredrick got the starting nod in this one but exited early with a lower body injury. The Hawkeyes didn't need much of Fredrick on Thursday however, as the game was out of hand early. Fredrick finished with nine minutes of action and should be considered day-to-day leading up to Iowa's next game against Wisconsin on Sunday.

Officially questionable to return Fredrick is questionable to return to Thursday's contest against Nebraska due to a lower right leg injury.

Impact Fredrick limped off early during Thursday's game, visiting the locker room before returning to the bench. He's yet to re-enter the game, so the Hawkeyes will turn to Keegan Murray to start the beginning of the second half.

Limps off early Fredrick left Thursday's game against Nebraska during the first half with a lower body injury, Chris Basnett of the Lincoln Journal Star reports.

Impact Fredrick limped off the floor during the early portion of Thursday's game, and his return to the contest is questionable. He went to the locker room for evaluation but was spotted on the bench not long thereafter.

Good to go again Thursday Fredrick (leg) will play Thursday versus Michigan, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Fredrick's leg injury is expected to be an issue the rest of the way, so it will be a pain tolerance issue for him moving forward. Fortunately, it appears the Hawkeyes will have him available for a showdown with No. 3 Michigan on Thursday, and there is no sign he will be limited.

Will start Thursday Fredrick (undisclosed) will start Thursday's game against Wisconsin, Jeff Potrykus of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Fredrick was deemed probable and participated in early warmups ahead of Thursday's contest. The 6-3 guard has been dealing with a lower leg injury the last couple weeks and has missed a total of four games.

FEBRUARY 18, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Deemed probable for Thursday Fredrick (undisclosed) is considered probable to take the floor Thursday against Wisconsin, Mike Hlas of the Cedar Rapids Gazette reports.

Impact Fredrick's participation in early warmups was the first evidence he may give it a go Thursday, but now it appears that should be the case. However, the sophomore is clearly less than 100 percent and has averaged just 14.5 minutes per game in his two appearances since suffering the injury. He could be headed for a similar workload Thursday, which would mark a significant drop from the 24.1 minutes per contest he's averaging on the season.

Taking part in early warmups Fredrick (undisclosed) is taking part in early warmups ahead of Thursday's game against Wisconsin, Mark Emmert of The Des Moines Register reports.

Impact It's worth noting that Fredrick did the same before the previous game but was ultimately unable to give it a go, but it seems he at least has a decent chance to suit up for the Hawkeyes on Thursday. A clearer picture of his status should surface closer to the opening tip, but the early indications are positive.

Out Saturday Fredrick won't play in Saturday's game against Michigan State, Mark Emmert of The Des Moines Register reports.

Impact Fredrick was spotted in street clothes ahead of Saturday's tipoff, signaling he won't play. While he sits, the team will look to Joe Toussaint to pick up some minutes in the backcourt.

FEBRUARY 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Game-time decision Saturday Fredrick (undisclosed) won't start Saturday's game against Michigan State and is questionable to play, Mark Emmert of The Des Moines Register reports.

Impact Fredrick missed a pair of games last week due to a lower-leg injury, though it's unclear if what he's dealing with currently is related to the past injury. He won't be in the starting lineup, and it remains to be seen whether he'll be made available. If he ends up sitting, Joe Toussaint will be in line for more minutes Saturday.

Rejoins starting five Wednesday Fredrick is in the starting lineup Wednesday against Rutgers.

Impact The sophomore will return to the starting five after missing the past two games with a lower leg injury. Over 16 games played so far, Fredrick is averaging 8.7 points and 2.3 assists.

FEBRUARY 10, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Wednesday Fredrick (lower leg) will play in Wednesday's game against Rutgers, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Fredrick is expected to be dealing with the leg issue the rest of the way, so it's possible his minutes will be managed some and he may need the occasional night off. However, it appears he will give it a go Wednesday after sitting out the last two contests and he seems likely to retake a spot in the starting five.

FEBRUARY 10, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Hopeful to return Wednesday Coach Fran McCaffery indicated Tuesday that he hopes to have Fredrick (lower leg) back for Wednesday's game versus Rutgers, Mark Emmert of The Des Moines Register reports.

Impact Fredrick is dealing with a lower-leg injury that prevented him from playing in each of the last two games and three of the last four. Fortunately, he seems to be progressing toward a return again ahead of another tough matchup Wednesday. If available as expected, Fredrick sees a likely candidate to hold a starting spot like he has in every previous game this season.
