Warming up Wednesday Akot (Achilles) taking part in warmups prior to Wednesday's game against Fresno State, B.J. Rains of the Idaho Press-Tribune reports.

Slated to return Akot (Achilles) is in line to retake the floor Wednesday versus Fresno State, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Akot has skipped the last three games due to what was deemed a tender Achilles but appears to be on track for a return to action Wednesday. The junior forward is in the midst of his best statistical campaign to date, which is likely the result of his transfer from Arizona to a lesser level of competition in Boise. He will presumably retake a spot in the starting five when fully healthy.

Out Monday Akot (Achilles) is out for Monday's game at Wyoming, B.J. Rains of the Idaho Press-Tribune reports.

Impact Akot will miss his second straight contest as he continues to deal with a minor Achilles injury. His next chance to take the floor looms Wednesday against Wyoming as well.

Dealing with minor injury Head coach Leon Rice said after Friday's 80-69 win over Air Force that Akot is dealing with a tender Achilles which is the reason he missed the game, Jay Trust of KTVB.com reports.

Impact It doesn't sound as though Akot is dealing with anything major and the coaching staff wanted to hold him out as a precuation so that he doesn't aggravate the injury even further. The Broncos play again Monday so it'll be interesting to see whether Akot is able to suit up or not.
