Taking part in warmups Nichols (undisclosed) is warming up for Saturday's game against Richmond, Wayne Epps Jr. of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.

Impact Nichols wasn't available for the past three games but looks to be back in the mix for the Rams. Even so, Nichols rarely sees the floor and only plays a handful of minutes when he does, so his return shouldn't change much in regards to the rotation.

Out Wednesday Nichols (undisclosed) won't be available for Wednesday's game at Davidson, Wayne Epps Jr. of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.

Impact The 6-foot-8 big man hasn't played since Dec. 11 due to the unspecified issue. Prior to getting hurt, Nichols wasn't a regular factor in the rotation, appearing in seven games while averaging 0.9 points and 0.6 rebounds in 4.3 minutes.

Out again Saturday Nichols (undisclosed) will miss Saturday's game against St. Joseph's, Wayne Epps Jr. of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.

Impact Nichols will miss his seventh straight game for VCU with an undisclosed injury. The 6-foot-8 forward has appeared in seven games for the Rams, putting up just 0.9 points and 0.6 rebounds on 4.3 minutes per game. It is unclear when Nichols will be able to return, but VCU's next game will be Wednesday against Davidson.

Sits out Tuesday Nichols (undisclosed) was inactive during Tuesday's 63-61 loss to Davidson, Wayne Epps Jr. of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.

Impact Nichols has missed six straight games for VCU with an undisclosed injury. The 6-foot-8 forward has had a minor role for the Rams, averaging 0.9 points and 0.6 rebounds on 4.3 minutes per game this season. His next chance to return will be Saturday when VCU takes on St. Joseph's, but his expected status for this game is unknown.

Back in action Nichols (undisclosed) will return to action Saturday versus La Salle, Wayne Epps Jr. of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.

Impact Nichols should resume his usual bench depth role for the Rams in his return but seems unlikely to play more than a handful of minutes. He's averaging 0.9 points and 0.6 rebounds over 4.3 minutes in his seven appearances this season.

Not in warmups Nichols (undisclosed) was not seen in warmups and is not expected to play against Dayton tonight, Wayne Epps Jr. of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.

Impact Nichols did not play in the game against Florida Atlantic on Dec 15th either so this injury has kept him out for some time now. Look for Nichols to try to make a return on Jan 8th.

Likely to miss rest of season Coach Ed Cooley said that it looks like Nichols (illness) will miss the rest of the season, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.

Impact Nichols has missed the last three games due to a non-COVID-19 related illness. There are no specifics on Nichols' conditions, but obviously his prospects for playing this season are not looking good. The junior started eight games this season and was averaging 6.1 points and 2.4 rebounds in 16.8 minutes per contest.

Out indefinitely due to illness Nichols is out indefinitely due to an illness, though it's not COVID-19, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact After missing Wednesday's game against Seton Hall, Nichols is expected to miss more time due to an illness. Prior to Wednesday's absence, the junior had worked himself into a greater role, starting eight consecutive games and averaging 7.0 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.0 assist and 0.9 steals over that span. Noah Horchler picked up the start in place of Nichols on Wednesday, dropping 10 points, eight rebounds and a steal over a season-high 31 minutes. Given the strong performance, Horchler remains the prime candidate to continue benefitting from Nichols' absence.

Should play Monday Nichols is expected to be available for Monday's game against Indiana, Bill Koch of The Providence Journal reports.

Impact Nichols averaged 11.5 minutes per game in 2018-19 and 11.8 in his five appearances last year, so he should make his mark off the bench when available. It's unclear exactly when his debut will occur, but it seems he may be sidelined for Wednesday's opener.
