Out for remainder of season Njie (knee) is out for the remainder of Notre Dame's 2025-26 season, according to the team's announcement Monday.
Impact During one of Notre Dame's previous games, seemingly Tuesday against Miami, Njie suffered a knee injury that will prematurely end not only his 2025-26 season but also his collegiate career. The campaign marks his last year of collegiate eligibility, and he used it to log a third season with Notre Dame. Njie went from a regular starter to more of a microwave role player, and in his 17 games (zero starts), he averaged 2.5 points and 3.4 rebounds while shooting a career-best 63.2 percent from the field.
JANUARY 19 • ROTOWIRE
Out at Virginia Tech Njie (undisclosed) is out against Virginia Tech on Saturday.
Impact Njie will miss his first game of the season. The senior forward plays a small role for the Irish, averaging 2.5 points and 3.4 rebounds across 11.5 minutes.
JANUARY 16 • ROTOWIRE
Running it back in South Bend Njie (concussion) will withdraw from the 2025 NBA Draft, per Jon Chepkevich of Draft Express.
Impact Njie spent the 2024-2025 season at Notre Dame after starting his career at Penn State. The forward averaged 6.1 points and 5.9 rebounds across 31 games, including 30 starts. He also shot a career-high 55.5 percent from the field. Njie's return is big news for an Irish squad looking to make a dent in the ACC next season.
MAY 28, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Remains out vs. UNC Njie (concussion) won't play against North Carolina on Wednesday, Tom Noie of the South Bend Tribune reports.
Impact Njie missed the Irish's win over Pittsburgh in the first round of the ACC Tournament, and he'll miss round two as well as he remains in the concussion protocol. If Notre Dame pulls off the massive upset against North Carolina, Njie will get a chance to play Thursday as well.
MARCH 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Out for first-round game Njie (concussion) is out for Notre Dame's first-round game Tuesday against Pittsburgh at Charlotte, according to Tom Noie of the South Bend Tribune.
Impact Njie suffered his concussion during Notre Dame's game Saturday against California. After the Fighting Irish logged their Cal matchup, they have to play Pittsburgh on Tuesday. Njie's 2024-25 season continuing will have to depend on Notre Dame defeating Pitt, and that result would lead to ND's next game being Wednesday against North Carolina, also at Charlotte.

FEBRUARY 13, 2025 • Associated Press
Records double-double Njie ended Wednesday's 66-65 loss to North Carolina State with 10 points (5-8 FG), 11 rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 34 minutes.
Impact The Fighting Irish came up short of winning in this tight matchup, but Njie was a standout performer due to his solid contributions on both ends of the court. The junior has started in each of his 15 games this season and is averaging 6.7 points with 6.1 boards per game, both figures that represent career-high marks for him across the board.
JANUARY 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Small improvements in 2024-25 Njie is averaging 6.6 points and 5.9 rebounds across 22.5 mpg through 11 games (all starts) for the Fighting Irish in 2024-25.
Impact Njie's role remains stagnant from a season ago -- he continues to be the primary starting center, but his minutes, and thus his offensive ceiling, are often capped. Still, Njie's effiency has improved, as the scoring and rebounding marks are career bests despite the fact he's seeing slightly less minutes than in 2023-24. Nikita Konstantynovskyi and Garrett Sundra see time at the five as well, but Notre Dame's primary scoring is currently provided by Braeden Shrewsberry (16.7 ppg) and Tae Davis (15.0 ppg) with Markus Burton sidelined by a knee injury.
DECEMBER 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE
Available vs. UMES Njie (hand) is available for the Irish's game Wednesday against Maryland-Eastern Shore, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.
Impact Njie will be able to log his Irish debut Wednesday. The sophomore averaged 3.4 points and 3.5 rebounds across 37 games (26 started) he played while enrolled at Penn State. Now, the question is whether or not Njie replaces Matt Zona as Notre Dame's primary center beginning from Wednesday.
NOVEMBER 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Out again Njie (hand) is out for Notre Dame's game Saturday against Western Carolina, according to Tom Noie of The South Bend Tribune.
Impact At least, Njie will sit out until the 2023 Legends Classic. Notre Dame's team begins its tournament schedule Thursday against Auburn. When the Fighting Irish did not have Njie available Monday, Matt Zona was their starting center. He logged five rebounds across his 17 minutes against Niagara.
NOVEMBER 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Inactive Monday Njie (hand) will miss Monday's season opener against Niagara, Tom Noie of the South Bend Tribune reports.
Impact Njie suffered a right-hand injury during practice this weekend and will be unavailable for Monday's season opener. The 6-foot-10 sophomore is considered day-to-day and his next opportunity to suit up will come against Western Carolina this Saturday.

Low impact in start Njie ended with zero points (0-1 FG), one rebound and one block in 12 minutes during Saturday's 74-68 loss to Maryland.
Impact Njie and Mikey Henn have split starts at center for Penn State this season, but both are essentially big bodies to defend the rim, and neither is typical an effective fantasy option. Njie has been in double figures just once this season, while his counterpart has done so on only three occasions.
FEBRUARY 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Moves back into starting five Njie is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game versus Maryland.

Logs two rebounds in loss Njie provided zero points (0-1 FG), two rebounds, one assist and one block across 17 minutes during Tuesday's 63-60 loss to Wisconsin.
Impact Njie has started in seven straight games but failed to score on three different occasions. With just one win in their last four games, Njie seems to fit in for the Nittany Lions where no one else is able to step up.
