Justice Sueing - College Basketball News & Rumors

Status still TBD Buckeyes head coach Chris Holtmann said Tuesday that "there's been no decision on Justice right now" in reference to a possible return for Sueing (abdomen), Adam Jardy of The Colum...

Impact For context, this was reported around the same time that teammate Seth Towns (back) was ruled out for the season, so the significance here is that the same can't be said for Sueing just yet. The senior hasn't played since Nov. 12 due to an abdominal injury, but whether or not he's able to contribute this year, Sueing could always elect to return for a fifth season in 2022-23. The 6-7 forward has already proven to be a key contributor for the program, as he started 31 games last season and provided 10.7 points and 5.5 rebounds.

Still out Sueing (abdomen) remains out for Thursday's game versus Minnesota, Adam Jardy of The Columbus Dispatch reports.

Impact Sueing doesn't appear to have an exact timeline for his return to action other than he just remains out. The senior, who hasn't appeared in a game since Nov. 12, figures to get more mention once he makes some progress on the injury front and a timetable for his return is finally established.

Ruled out for Tuesday's game Sueing (abdominal) will not be available for Tuesday's game against IUPUI, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Sueing is still without an updated timeline for return and will miss his 12th straight game. Ohio State won't play again until Jan. 27, so that provides some time for Sueing to possibly to try get healthy and return.

JANUARY 18, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Out Thursday and Sunday Sueing (abdomen) will remain out for Ohio State's next two games against Wisconsin and Penn State, Patrick Murphy reports.

Impact Sueing has missed 11 straight games for the Buckeyes after suffering an abdominal injury early in the season. In his two games which he saw action this season, the 6-foot-7 forward put up six points, 3.5 rebounds, and 0.5 steals on 15 minutes per game. Head coach Chris Holtmann said that Sueing has made progress with his injury, and his next chance to return will be Tuesday when the Buckeyes take on IUPUI, but his expected status is unknown.

JANUARY 13, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Still sidelined Thursday Ohio State head coach Chris Holtmann said Sueing (abdomen) won't be available for Thursday's game at Indiana, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Sueing has been dealing with the abdominal injury for much of the season, as he's been limited to just two appearances thus far. The Buckeyes are continuing to evaluate Sueing's status on a game-by-game basis, but whenever he's cleared to play again, the senior forward could face a minutes restriction in light of his extended absence.

JANUARY 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Sill out Sunday Sueing (abdomen) remains out for Sunday's game versus Nebraska but is making progress, Adam Jardy of The Columbus Dispatch reports.

Impact Sueing remains without a specific timetable for his return to action but will not be ready to rejoin the action for the resumption of Big Ten play. The senior has appeared in just two games and last appeared Nov. 12 versus Niagara.

DECEMBER 31, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Not playing in CBS Sports Classic Sueing (abdomen) won't play Saturday against Kentucky, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Sueing continues to deal with an abdomen injury and his absence has been a huge deal for the Buckeyes. He averaged 10.7 points and 5.5 rebounds per game last season, and he hasn't been able to step on the court since Nov. 12, as he's made just two appearances on the year.

DECEMBER 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Not ready for return Coach Chris Holtmann said Sueing (abdomen) is "making progress" but still has rehab work ahead and won't play Saturday versus Wisconsin, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Holtmann said in late November that Sueing was weeks away from returning, so it's not much of a surprise he's not yet ready to play. Still, the fact the veteran forward is progressing in his recovery is good news, even though he may not be cleared for game action until the calendar flips to 2022.

Not close to return Ohio State head coach Chris Holtmann said Monday that Sueing (abdominal) is weeks away from returning, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact It's looking more and more likely that the Buckeyes will be without Sueing until the calendar flips to 2022. His ongoing absence should continue to open up more minutes for Malaki Branham and Jimmy Sotos.

Will miss extended time Sueing will miss an extended period of time after having an abdominal injury evaluated earlier this week, Bill Landis of The Athletic reports.

Impact Sueing is expected to return at some point this season, but it is looking like he may not see the court until closer to conference play. Sueing suited up in limited minutes for the first two games of the season due to a groin injury, but it appears the abdominal issue is a far bigger concern going forward. This will be a big hit for the Buckeyes in the interim.

Ruled out against Bowling Green Sueing will not take the court Monday against Bowling Green, Adam Jardy of The Columbus Dispatch reports.

Impact Sueing saw limited minutes off the bench in the first two games of the season as he worked his way back from a groin injury, but now the team is just calling it a "lower-body" issue. He'll continue to be evaluated in advance of Thursday's matchup against Xavier, with E.J. Liddell presumably getting all the usage he can handle in the meantime. Kyle Young and Zed Key represent additional options to see more run in his stead.

Liddell scores 29, No. 17 Ohio State struggles past Niagara

NOVEMBER 13, 2021 • Associated Press

Limited in return Sueing produced two points (1-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and three rebounds across 14 minutes during Tuesday's 67-66 win over Akron.

Impact Sueing came off the bench for this matchup after starting all 31 games for the Buckeyes a season ago, as he's been nursing a groin injury that limited him during exhibition play. Ohio State certainly could have used more scoring contributions from him here after only narrowly avoiding defeat, but expect Sueing to see more minutes as he gets closer to 100 percent. His next chance to make an impact will be Friday against Niagra.

Looks good to go Sueing (groin) was spotted warming up ahead of Tuesday's season opener against Akron, Adam Jardy of The Columbus Dispatch reports.

Impact Sueing was expected to suit up for the opener after having missed the exhibition game the previous week due to a minor groin injury. The senior should start and play a decent amount of minutes.

Expected to be available Sueing (groin) is expected to be available for Tuesday's season-opener against Akron, Patrick Murphy of 247 Sports reports.

Impact Sueing did not play in last week's exhibition game due to a groin injury. It is something that has been bothering him since last March. It sounds like the senior will play through any discomfort and be a factor in the frontcourt for the Buckeyes.

NOVEMBER 8, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Sits with groin injury Sueing did not suit up for Monday's exhibition due to a groin injury, Adam Jardy of The Columbus Dispatch reports.

Impact This is apparently an injury that had been present last March and is simply taking longer than expected to heal. There was no real need to rush Sueing for a relatively low-stakes exhibition contest, but the question now is whether he'll be full-go when the Buckeyes open up against Akron on Nov. 9.
