Plans to enter transfer portal Nelson plans to enter the transfer portal, Joe Tipton of On3.com reports.

Impact Nelson's descion to leave Depaul is not all that suprising after their rough season. Nelson averaged 9.7 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 2 assists this season and should get some interest in the portal.

Nine points, five rebounds Nelson logged nine points (4-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds and four assists across his 24 minutes during DePaul's 82-74 loss Tuesday against IPFW.

Impact Most of Nelson's latest log was not much different from his 2022-23 stats. The big man averaged 10.0 points and 4.8 rebounds across 32 games he played that season. Fewer than five of them were as part of DePaul's starting lineup, so Nelson should not have much problems replicating the aforementioned campaign if his minutes continue to be relatively similar.

Plays 16 minutes Nelson (ankle) racked up three points (1-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt), one rebound, one assist, one block and two steals in 16 minutes during Saturday's 84-70 loss to Creighton.

Impact Nelson will be available when the 2022-23 Demons play their first Big East Tournament game Wednesday at Seton Hall. Currently across 2023, the junior is averaging 26.1 minutes, which he surprisingly logged as a substitute.

Seen in warmups Saturday Nelson was spotted in warmups before Saturday's game against Creighton, 247Sports.com reports.

Impact This is huge for DePaul, as Nelson can provide a solid scoring punch despite coming off the bench most of the time. He's averaging 10.5 points and 5.1 rebounds per game despite starting in just four of his 29 appearances.

MARCH 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable Saturday Nelson (ankle) is a game-time decision for Saturday's game versus Creighton, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Nelson is questionable Saturday after missing the previous game with an ankle injury. If he is unable to suit up against Creighton, he will likely have to wait until 2023-24 to retake the court.

MARCH 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out with ankle injury Nelson (ankle) won't play in DePaul's tilt with Connecticut, per 247Sports.com.

Impact Despite only starting four games, Nelson has been a valued contributor for DePaul this season. The forward is putting up 10.5 points, 5.1 rebounds and 1.8 assists across 25.2 minutes. This will be his first missed game of the year, and his next chance to play will come Saturday against Creighton.

MARCH 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Plays eight minutes Nelson notched two points (0-1 FG, 2-2 FT) over eight minutes during Saturday's 90-84 loss to Marquette.

Impact Initially listed out with an ankle injury before the Marquette loss, Nelson instead logged a relatively low minute tally. Considering the junior never recorded fewer than 20 minutes during each of DePaul's 19 games played from Dec. 10 to Feb. 22, fantasy managers should not be surprised if his playing time goes back up as soon as Wednesday at Connecticut. The usage depends on whether Nelson's ankle holds up, as it seemed on Saturday.

Back to bench Thursday Nelson is not in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against Georgetown.

Impact Nelson got a two-game stretch in the starting five while the Blue Demons were dealing with injuries to some key players. Overall, the 6-8 junior has been a valuable rotation piece whether he's starting or coming off the bench, as he's averaging 8.5 points and 5.1 rebounds in 23.5 minutes per game.

DECEMBER 29, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Benefits from team injuries Nelson logged five points (2-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds and one assist over 26 minutes during Saturday's 83-45 loss to Northwestern.

Impact Jalen Terry (knee), Yor Anei (foot) and Nick Ongenda (wrist) are out. Nelson was a part of DePaul's starting lineup in place of his injured teammates. Fantasy managers should not be surprised if the center continues receiving that benefit while all three players recover from their injuries.

DECEMBER 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Saturday Nelson is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against Northwestern, 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Nelson will earn the start in place of the injured Jalen Terry. It will be his third start of the year and his first since Nov. 25. On the year, the 6-8 junior is averaging 8.8 points and 4.8 rebounds in 23.2 minutes per game.

DECEMBER 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Eleven points across game started Nelson recorded 11 points (3-7 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, one block and one steal across 23 minutes during Sunday's 82-78 loss to Oklahoma State.

Impact Nelson logged at least 10 points during three of the 2022-23 Blue Demons' first five games. Fantasy managers should not be surprised if he continues to be a part of their starting lineup if Nick Ongenda (hand) and Yor Anei (foot) remain out indefinitely.
