Liam Robbins - College Basketball News & Rumors

Still limited in practice Robbins (foot) remains limited at practice, Robbie Weinstein of 247Sports reports.

Impact Robbins still has a couple of weeks to get up to speed ahead of the regular season, so his limited participation shouldn't be too worrisome at this point. It will be worth keeping tabs on how his participation level progresses over the next week or two, however.

To begin ramping up next week Coach Jerry Stackhouse relayed Thursday that Robbins (foot) will begin ramping up his basketball activities next week, Aria Gerson of The Tennessean reports.

Impact The initial prognosis for Robbins from just over a week ago was that he should be back in a few weeks, so his progress next week should be a telling sign on that front. If he can avoid setbacks, Robbins should have a good chance to take the floor for the Nov. 10 opener versus Alabama State.

Expected to be back in a few weeks Robbins (foot) is expected to return to the court in a few weeks, Aria Gerson of The Tennessean reports.

Doesn't participate in pro day Robbins (ankle) did not participate in a recent Vanderbilt pro day, Robbie Weinstein of 247 Sports reports.

Impact Robbins missed the last six games of his junior season at Minnesota with what was described as an ankle injury, but it's not immediately clear whether the two issues are related. It could simply be a load management issue for the 7-0 senior, who is currently expected to step in and take over as the starting center, filling the shoes of Clevon Brown and Dylan Disu. Hopefully, more clarity will emerge prior to the team's Nov. 10 opener against Alabama State.

Won't play Saturday Robbins (ankle) will be unavailable for Saturday's game against Rutgers, Marcus Fuller of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Impact Robbins is set to miss his fourth straight game due to a lingering ankle injury that he suffered in a game against Purdue on Feb. 11. The 7-0 junior initially attempted to try and play through the pain but it caused him to have some of his most unproductive stat lines of the season and he now appears to potentially be in danger of missing the Gophers' Big Ten Tournament game on Wednesday. Eric Curry should continue to remain in the starting lineup while Robbins is sidelined.

Game-time call Robbins (ankle) is considered a game-time decision for Saturday's regular-season finale versus Rutgers Marcus Fuller of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Impact Robbins hasn't taken the floor in any of the last three games but is hoping to knock some rust off in the finale ahead of the Big Ten Tournament. The transfer from Drake has been a stalwart down low when healthy, racking up 11.7 points, 6.6 rebounds and 2.7 blocks per contest.

Will miss third straight game Robbins (ankle) will not play in Wednesday's game against Penn State, Ryan James of 247sports.com reports.

Game-time call Wednesday Robbins (ankle) is a game-time decision for Wednesday's game against Penn State, Marcus Fuller of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Impact Minnesota could be without Robbins for a third consecutive game as he continues to work through an ankle issue. He hasn't practiced since the injury, so if that remains the case through Tuesday, it may not bode well for his availability against the Nittany Lions. Eric Curry could make another start if Robbins is out again.

Set to miss another game Robbins (ankle) is not dressed for Saturday's game against Nebraska, Marcus Fuller of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Impact Robbins missed Thursday's game against Northwestern and is set to miss at least one more. Eric Curry started and played 32 minutes in his absence in that contests and likely lines up for a similar role in this one.

Sporting leg accessory Robbins was seen in a boot and won't play in Thursday's game against Northwestern, Marcus Fuller of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Impact The junior will miss his first game of the season Thursday, as he's yet to practice in the past few days due to the ankle issue. The fact that Robbins was seen in a boot certainly isn't a good sign, as he still has no time table for a return. With Robbins sidelined, look for Eric Curry to draw the start in Thursday's game.

FEBRUARY 25, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Still not practicing Robbins (ankle) is still not practicing according to coach Richard Pitino, Marcus Fuller of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Impact Robbins has been dealing with an ankle injury for the last couple weeks that his limited in games pretty heavily. Coach Pitino has been mixing things up in practice trying to test different lineups to see how they fair without Robbins taking up the middle. Robbins should be considered questionable for Thursday's game against Northwestern.

FEBRUARY 23, 2021 • STARTRIBUNE.COM

Scoreless against Illinois Robbins generated zero points (0-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four assists, four blocks and one rebound over 13 minutes in Saturday's 94-63 loss to Illinois.

Impact Robbins was hindered by an ankle injury leading up to Saturday's matchup, and he saw limited playing time against the Illini. He struggled against Illinois center Kofi Cockburn and was held scoreless for the first time this season. Robbins was dominant earlier in the season, but he's averaging just 5.2 points and 4.8 rebounds over 20.0 minutes per game across the past five matchups.

In starting five Robbins (ankle) will start Saturday's game against Illinois, Marcus Fuller of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Impact Robbins' availability is big news for the Golden Gophers as they attempt to contain Illinois star center Kofi Cockburn. Robbins stands seven feet tall himself and will presumably be charged with the task. He may also find it challenging to rack up offensive numbers Saturday with Cockburn presumably set to guard him as well.

Warming up Saturday Robbins (ankle) is warming up ahead of Saturday's game against Illinois, Marcus Fuller of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Impact Robbins has been dealing with an ankle issue since last week but appears to be attempting to give it a go in a tough test against Illinois. It may be a long afternoon for Robbins who won't be at 100 percent and will have to match up against one of the most tenacious big men in the country in Kofi Cockburn.

FEBRUARY 20, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Hopes to play versus Illini Robbins continues to sit out practice to rest his bad ankle but hopes to play Saturday against Illinois, Marcus Fuller of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Impact Robbins hasn't missed a game yet this season and he's doing everything he can to keep that the case. It's probably best to consider him questionable for Saturday and to operate under the assumption that the junior big man is less than 100 percent even if he does take the floor.

Six points against Hoosiers Robbins (ankle) had six points (1-2 FG, 4-6 FT), two rebounds and three blocks across 26 minutes in Wednesday's 82-72 loss to Indiana.

Impact Robbins started despite being severely limited his last time out due to ankle troubles, but he saw less minutes than any other player in the starting five. Part of that may be due to the four personal fouls he accumulate, but in any case, he'll remain a risky fantasy option until his playing time returns to its old level.

FEBRUARY 18, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Set for start Robbins (ankle) is starting for Wednesday's game against Indiana.

Impact Robbins came into the contest with an ankle injury that he played through last weekend, as he'll give it a go again Wednesday. The junior has been outstanding this season coming over as a transfer from Drake, averaging 12.6 points and 7.1 rebounds per contest across 21 games.

FEBRUARY 17, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Going through warmup Robbins (ankle) is participating in pregame warmups ahead of Wednesday's game against Indiana, Tyler Tachman of InsidetheHall reports.

Impact Robbins played through the ankle issue last weekend, but was seen gingerly going through warmup Wednesday. Minnesota was hit with bad injury news Wednesday, as Gabe Kalscheur is out indefinitely with a hand injury, so they'll need anything they can get from Robbins. Eric Curry may get more opportunities if Robbins is unable to go Wednesday.

Questionable with ankle issue Robbins (ankle) is questionable to play in Wednesday's game against Indiana, Andy Greder of TwinCities.com reports.

Impact Robbins played through an ankle injury last weekend against Maryland and really struggled. Because of that the coaching staff may elect to sit Robbins down and let that ankle heal. Eric Curry may get more opportunities if Robbins is unable to go Wednesday.

Struggles against Terps Robbins (ankle) had two points (1-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds and a steal across 18 minutes in Sunday's 72-59 loss to Maryland.

Impact Robbins emerged from last week's matchup against Purdue with an ankle injury, and while he played through any discomfort Sunday, the junior ended up with one of his worst shooting days of the season. Foul trouble limited him early, but he was simply never able to get it going from the field once the opportunities presented themselves. Next up for the Gophers is a road matchup against Indiana on Wednesday.
