Vrankic is shooting an efficient 56 percent from inside-the-arc this season.

Logs 12 points in return Vrankic closed Tuesday's 72-60 loss to Boise State with 12 points (5-9 FG, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and two steals in 23 minutes.

Impact Vrankic made his return to the starting lineup after missing the previous eight games due to mono, and he tied a team-high with 12 points. He was under a minutes restriction and logged a season-low 23 minutes as a result. That should continue to increase as he works his way back, as the fifth-year senior's offense will be needed with the Broncos going 4-4 in his absence.

Still looking at multi-week absence Vrankic (mono) is set to miss a few more weeks, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact This is the exact same timeline that was reported one week ago, so it doesn't appear as if Vrankic is much closer to a return to the court after coming down with mononucleosis. The fifth year senior had been averaging 16.3 points and 6.7 rebounds through the first three games, but the Broncos will now have to turn to a combination of Parker Braun and Jaden Bediako to hold down the fort, at least until WCC play begins.

Expected to be out a few weeks Coach Herb Sendek said that Vrankic (illness) will be out for a few weeks, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Vrankic is battling mono and did not play on Monday against TCU. It sounds like the 6-9 forward will miss the next handful of games, which leaves 16.3 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 6.0 assists to be absorbed somewhere in their rotation.

Won't play Monday Vrankic won't play in Monday's game against TCU due to an illness, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact The forward has apparently come down with mono and will his second straight matchup as a result. It'll be a big loss for the Broncos, as the center is averaging 16.3 points 6.7 rebounds and 6.0 assists across three outings this season. Vrankic will likely be a game-time call for the team's next contest against Fresno State on Wednesday.

Leads team to victory Vrankic tallied 29 points (13-20 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds and five assists across 37 minutes in Wednesday's 84-77 win over Cal St. Fullerton.

Impact Vrankic led all scorers with 29 points as he neared his career-high of 33 against Pepperdine in his sophomore season. The fifth-year senior did it all in the victory, coming up two rebounds shy of a double-double while also grabbing five steals. Vrankic will be the clear go-to-guy for the Broncos this season.
