UConn's Nik Khamenia needs foot surgery, will miss several weeks for 4th-ranked Huskies

UConn forward Nik Khamenia needs surgery on his injured his left foot and is expected to miss several weeks

1 DAY AGO • Associated Press

Nik Khamenia - Set to undergo foot surgery Khamenia will undergo surgery on his left foot and will be re-evaluated in 6-8 weeks, per Joe Arruda of the Hartford Courant.

Impact Khamenia got banged up in UConn's win over Wagner on Monday, and now the forward is set to undergo surgery in the coming days. The sophomore was off to a solid start in 2026-27, having started every game for the Huskies and averaging 10.7 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.3 assists. Now, UConn will likely rely more on Najai Hines at forward and Colben Landrew at the wing to cover Khamenia's minutes.

Nik Khamenia - Won't return Monday Khamenia won't return to Monday's game against Wagner due to an undisclosed injury, David Borges of CT Insider reports.

Impact This is a huge blow for UConn, as Khamenia is one of the team's top assets on both ends of the court. With him out, expect Jayden Ross to be in line for more playing time. Khamenia's next chance to suit up will come Friday against Ohio State.

NOVEMBER 3 • Associated Press

Na'jai Hines - Carves out role in exhibition play Hines had nine points (3-8 FG, 3-5 FT), six rebounds, two assists and a block across 17 minutes in Tuesday's exhibition victory over Purdue.

Impact Hines came off the bench in favor of Oskar Giltay in the Oct. 13 exhibition opener against Syracuse, but he impressed with a 17-point, eight-rebound showing. He proceeded to start the next two games and looks to have at least a loose hold on that job ahead of the Monday opener against Gardner Webb. With the Huskies possessing two capable center options, Hines can be aggressive, which will sometimes result in big lines but also represents a bit of a foul trouble risk.

Nik Khamenia - Big producer in exhibition play Khamenia had eight points (2-8 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and two steals across 24 minutes in Tuesday's exhibition victory over Purdue.

Impact Khamenia was a five-star recruit who got lost in the shuffle at Duke during his freshman year, so he hit the portal and will now be a starter for another national title contender. He led the Huskies with 19 points in an earlier exhibition matchup against Michigan State, in addition to posting a 12-point, 8-rebound line in the exhibition opener against Syracuse. It appears the 6-8 sophomore will be far more than just a role player, representing a candidate to lead UConn in scoring every night, in addition to being a regular double-double threat.

NOVEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE

Silas Demary Jr. - Productive exhibition run Demary had 10 points (2-8 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 6-7 FT), five assists, three rebounds and four steals across 27 minutes in Tuesday's exhibition victory over Purdue.

Impact Demary reached double figures in all three exhibition games for UConn, who played a tougher-than-average preseason schedule but picked up wins over Purdue, Michigan State and Syracuse. The preseason Big East Player of the Year, Demary is expected to have a massive senior year in his second season in Storrs under Dan Hurley.
