Much less assertive Tuesday Leffew finished Tuesday's 73-64 win over South Carolina with six points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and one block over 24 minutes.

Impact After scoring 11 points on 11 shots in the Bulldogs' win over Texas, Leffew only took four shots from the field against South Carolina. It was a much quieter performance, but Leffew - who averages 9.7 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.7 assists across 25.7 minutes this season - will continue to be a critical part of Georgia's bench.

Good to go Saturday Leffew (ankle) is available for Saturday's game against Missouri.

Impact Leffew was unable to play in Tuesday's 69-53 loss to Texas A&M due to an ankle injury, but it appears he's progressed enough in his recovery to be available Saturday. Leffew has started in each of his last four outings, and over that span he has averaged 9.3 points, 2.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.5 steals over 31.0 minutes per game.

Practices Thursday Leffew (ankle) practiced Thursday afternoon after missing the Bulldogs' loss to Texas A&M, Marc Weiszer of the Athens Banner-Herald reports.

Impact Leffew's status wasn't updated for Georgia's clash with Missouri on Saturday, but this is clearly a step in the right direction for the guard. Before his ankle injury, he'd started four straight games, averaging 9.3 points, 2.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.5 steals in those contests.

Out at Texas A&M Leffew (undisclosed) is out for the Bulldogs' game Tuesday at Texas A&M, according to their X account.

Impact According to the SEC student-athlete availability report, Leffew was available Tuesday. However, his undisclosed problem will cause a DNP then. Without him or Tyrin Lawrence (also undisclosed) available, the Bulldogs' starting lineup requires an addition.

Notches first start of season Leffew will start for the Bulldogs against South Carolina, Jordan D. Hill of the 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Georgia has elected to tinker with its starting five for the first time this season. Leffew will get his first career start as a Bulldog after playing 20 games off the bench and averaging 11.0 points, 2.0 rebounds and 2.1 assists. He'll take the place of Tyrin Lawrence in the starting five.

Limited impact in loss Leffew closed with two points (1-6 FG, 0-3 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 23 minutes during Wednesday's 68-65 loss to Arkansas.

Impact Leffew's two points were his lowest output of the season. He simply couldn't get it going despite playing a solid 22 minutes. As the resident sixth man for the Bulldogs, Leffew has been very solid as a scoring specialist, but nights in which he can't get it going can be very detrimental.

JANUARY 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Thriving as scoring specialist Leffew logged 19 points (8-12 FG, 3-5 3Pt), one rebound and one assist over 25 minutes during Sunday's 81-65 win over Charleston Southern.

Impact Leffew has been extremely efficient coming off the bench as a scoring option for the Bulldogs. He's shooting 47.4 percent from the field and 41.0 percent from downtown, and averaging 12.9 points-per-game despite not starting a single contest for Georgia. He's more than just a glue guy; he's crucial to the Bulldogs' rotations and scoring.
