Comes close to double-double Walker registered 12 points (4-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds and an assist across 32 minutes in Wednesday's loss against Florida State.

Impact Walker didn't have his best shooting performance, but he ended just three rebounds away from pouring a double-double. The sophomore has been a reliable scoring threat for Miami, though, as he has scored in double digits in six of his last seven contests.

Struggles with shot Wednesday McGusty notched 12 points (3-12 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 6-6 FT), four rebounds, four assists and a steal across 36 minutes in Wednesday's loss against Florida State.

Impact McGusty was one of four starters that scored in double digits for the Hurricanes, but he struggled massively with his shot and was unable to get anything going. Despite the shooting woes, McGusty has looked decent of late -- he has scored in double digits in six of his past eight outings.

Tallies 29 in defeat Wong had 29 points (9-16 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 7-8 FT), four rebounds and two steals across 33 minutes in Wednesday's 88-71 loss to Florida State.

Impact Wong had a few lingering ankle concerns heading into this contest, but it was never expected to prevent him from taking the court. He ultimately took on a massive responsibility in both minutes and usage, as Harlond Beverly ended up sitting out the contest due to a back injury. With Chris Lykes (ankle) presumed out for the rest of the season, Wong should continue to be the primary offensive option for an injury-burdened Hurricanes team. Miami has road games against Clemson (Feb. 27) and Virginia (Mar. 1) next up on the schedule.

Should play despite ankle sprain Wong sprained his ankle during Saturday's game versus Georgia Tech but is expected to take the floor Wednesday to face Florida State, Michelle Kaufman of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Wong is a key remaining component for a Miami backcourt that will presumably be without the services of Chris Lykes (ankle) and Harlond Beverly (back) for multiple games. While he's dealing with injury woes of his own, he's reportedly been able to bounce back from them quickly and is expected to do so again for Wednesday's tilt. It may still be worth checking in on his status pregame, but it's best to consider him probable to handle his usual duties.

Paces Hurricanes in loss Olaniyi registered 18 points (6-9 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 4-8 FT), seven rebounds, an assist, a steal and a block across 35 minutes in Saturday's loss against Georgia Tech.

Impact Olaniyi paced Miami in both points and rebounds, and this was clearly his most productive outing of the campaign in terms of importance to the team. He has been playing at a high level of late and has scored in double digits in five games in a row, averaging 15.8 points per game in that span.

Goes for 16 points Saturday Walker delivered 16 points (6-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and a rebound across 28 minutes in Saturday's loss against Georgia Tech.

Impact Walker ended as Miami's second-best scorer behind Elijah Olaniyi, and he extended his most productive stretch of the season with another strong scoring output. Walker has scored in double digits in six of his last seven contests, averaging 12.6 points per game in that span.

Out indefinitely with back injury Beverly won't play in Saturday's game against Georgia Tech, and he's listed as out indefinitely due to a back injury.

Impact Beverly is dealing with a nagging back injury, and he'll be forced to miss some time as a result. While he's out, Anthony Walker and Willie Herenton are the top candidates to see an increase in minutes. It's unclear how long Beverly might be sidelined, but his next chance to return comes Wednesday against Florida State. On the season, Beverly is averaging 6.7 points, 4.5 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.5 steals over 28.7 minutes per game.

Impact Lykes was believed to be a candidate to retake the floor recently, but it appears the senior's ankle issue is serious enough that he may be forced to miss all but the first two games of the 2020-21 campaign. He was off to a hot start once again prior to the injury and figures to play a vital role again next season, assuming he elects to return.

Posts double-double off bench Walker mustered 14 points (6-15 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and 10 rebounds across 26 minutes off the bench in Sunday's loss against Notre Dame.

Impact Walker was coming off six straight starts and oddly moved to the bench Sunday, but that didn't stop him on his way to posting his third double-double of the season. He could return to the starting lineup for Saturday's matchup against Georgia Tech.

Scores team-high 17 points Wong registered 17 points (6-16 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, an assist and a steal across 39 minutes in Sunday's loss against Notre Dame.

Impact Wong struggled from the field in this one, but that didn't stop him from scoring in double digits for the eighth game in a row. He's averaging 18.6 points per game -- despite shooting just 41 percent from the field -- in that eight-game span.

Done for season Miami head coach Jim Larranaga said Monday that Timberlake (shoulder) will be shut down for the remainder of the season, Josh White of WVUM 90.5 Coral Gables reports.

Impact Timberlake hadn't played since Jan. 19 due to the left shoulder injury, missing six consecutive contests. The freshman apparently wasn't making much meaningful progress in his recovery, prompting the Hurricanes to rule him out for the remainder of the campaign. Before getting hurt, Timberlake had established himself as a key rotation piece for the Hurricanes, averaging 9.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.7 steals in 27.0 minutes per game over seven appearances.

Not ready to return Lykes (ankle) will not be available for Sunday's game against Notre Dame after he tweaked his ankle in practice, Michelle Kaufman of the Miami Herald reports.

Impact Head coach Jim Larranaga mentioned Friday that Lykes had a chance to return for Sunday's game, but he'll continue to be sidelined after he reportedly tweaked his ankle injury in practice. The 5-7 senior hasn't played since Dec. 4 as he'll look to have a better week of practice with the hopes of finally returning for a meeting with Georgia Tech on Jan. 20.

FEBRUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Not starting Sunday Walker is not in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against Notre Dame.

Impact Walker has started in the last six times he's been available but will head to the bench Sunday in favor of Harlond Beverly. The 6-9 sophomore struggled from the floor last weekend against Virginia Tech and failed to score double-digit points for the first time in five games. His poor shooting performance may have played a factor in his move to the bench but he'll still have a sizeable role as he's averaged 23.4 minutes per game this season.

Returning to starting lineup Beverly is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against Notre Dame.

Impact Beverly came off the bench in the Hurricanes' last game and played a season-low 16 minutes but will re-enter the starting five for Sunday's meeting with Notre Dame. The 6-5 sophomore had his worst game of the season against the Irish on Jan. 24 when he failed to score for the first time all year and will look to turn it around upon his return to the lineup.

Jim Larranaga hopeful PG Chris Lykes returns against Notre Dame Jim Larranaga gave an update on the injury status of point guard Chris Lykes.

FEBRUARY 12 • 247SPORTS.COM

Could return Sunday Coach Jim Larranaga indicated Friday that he hopes to get Lykes (ankle) back soon and that he could return Sunday against Notre Dame, Christopher Stock of 247Sports reports.

Impact Lykes hasn't taken the floor since Dec. 4 but appears to be on the cusp of a return to action. The sooner he's cleared to retake the floor, the better off the senior will be in terms of getting in game shape ahead of the conference tournament. Lykes was a key piece in the first two games of the season, posting 15.5 points, 5.5 assists and 4.0 boards per game, and he should resume starting point guard duties when he's back to 100 percent.
