Headed to bench Friday Reibe will come off the bench Friday versus Illinois, Scott Richey of The Champaign News-Gazette reports.

Impact Reie performed admirably, subbing into the starting lineup for the Huskies for Tarris Reed, who will rejoin the starting five in his return to action. Reibe averages just 12.3 minutes per contest off the bench in his three appearances in that role, compared to 21.7 minutes per contest as a starter, so expect a muted role for the big man.

Scores 15 in close loss Reibe contributed 15 points (6-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-4 FT), four rebounds and two blocks in 28 minutes before fouling out of Wednesday's 71-67 loss to Arizona.

Impact Reibe made his second start of the season Wednesday and put together a good performance versus the No. 4 ranked team in the nation. The true freshman led the team with 15 points and hit the first two three-pointers of his career on five attempts. He also blocked two shots for the second time this season. He struggled from the free throw line though, and he's now made just two of seven attempts from the line this season. He will need to improve that aspect of his game as the season progresses.
