Not playing Saturday Sylla (ankle) will not play in Saturday's game against Florida State, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Sylla will miss another matchup as he continues working his way back from an ankle injury suffered in Jan. 24. The 6-foot-10 center will aim to be available for Wednesday's meeting with California.

FEBRUARY 27 • ROTOWIRE

Still sidelined Sylla (undisclosed) is out for Wednesday's game against Wake Forest.

Impact Sylla will be held out for a fifth straight game. The freshman center's next chance to play will come Saturday at Notre Dame. Expect Cole Kirouac to serve as GT's backup five.

FEBRUARY 10 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Saturday Sylla (undisclosed) won't play Saturday at Stanford, per Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact Sylla will miss his fourth straight game. The freshman center hasn't really been a factor since Dec. 31, however, as he's been on and off the court ever since while battling injury. Sylla averages 9.6 points and 7.1 rebounds.

FEBRUARY 6 • ROTOWIRE

Out Tuesday Sylla (undisclosed) is out Tuesday at Virginia Tech.

Impact Sylla is unavailable for the fifth time in seven games. The freshman center has battled an undisclosed injury since the calendar flipped to 2026, and he's hardly been able to get on the court since, totaling just eight minutes in the games he has played. Sylla will look to return on Jan. 31 against North Carolina.

JANUARY 27 • ROTOWIRE

Uncertain to play Tuesday Sylla (undisclosed) is questionable for Tuesday's game against Virginia Tech.

Impact Sylla continues to produce at a high level, averaging 9.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, 1.2 blocks and 0.8 steals per game this season while starting in all but one of his 16 outings. He was limited to eight minutes in the loss to Clemson on Saturday, but if he passes a late fitness test, he should step on the court Tuesday.

JANUARY 26 • ROTOWIRE

Limited in return Sylla closed Saturday's 77-63 loss to Clemson with one point (0-2 FG, 1-2 FT), three rebounds and one assist over eight minutes.

Impact Entering the contest, Sylla had missed four of Georgia Tech's last five games and only appeared for two minutes in a Jan. 10 contest at Miami. He was cleared from the injury report prior to Saturday's tip, but the 6-10 freshman came off the bench for the first time all season and saw limited run. We may be looking at a different player than the one who averaged 11.5 points and 8.7 rebounds through the first 11 games of the season, but Sylla will get another chance to ramp up Tuesday at Virginia Tech.

JANUARY 26 • ROTOWIRE

Not on report Sylla (ankle) is not on the injury report and will be available for Saturday's game against Clemson.

Impact As expected, Sylla will be available for the matchup against Clemson. He'll add depth to the frontcourt and should be a sizable addition for the Yellow Jackets on both ends of the court. The big man averages 10.2 points, 7.5 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game.

JANUARY 23 • ROTOWIRE

Aiming to return for Clemson game Sylla (ankle) is aiming to return for Georgia Tech's clash with Clemson, per Sam Lance of The Field of 68.

Impact Sylla has missed four of the Yellow Jackets' last five games, including two straight absences. The freshman center is reportedly ramping up in practice and supposedly looked good doing so -- he appears to be trending in the right direction at the very least. The big man averages 10.2 points, 7.5 rebounds and 1.3 blocks; he'll be a big re-addition for Georgia Tech.

JANUARY 19 • ROTOWIRE

Still out Saturday Sylla (lower body) remains sidelined for Saturday's clash with NC State, per the ACC availability report.

Impact The fact that Sylla wasn't ruled out on the initial report bodes well for a return in the near future, but it won't occur Saturday in Raleigh. The Yellow Jackets went with a slightly smaller starting five in his absence last time out and could decide to do the same Saturday.

JANUARY 17 • ROTOWIRE

Officially questionable Sylla (lower body) is questionable at NC State on Saturday.

Impact Sylla has missed three of the last four games and most recently missed the Yellow Jackets' loss to Pitt on Jan. 14. The freshman center will remain a question mark heading into Saturday, and he'll likely be a game-time decision yet again. Sylla averages 10.2 points and 7.5 rebounds.

JANUARY 16 • ROTOWIRE

DNP Wednesday Sylla (lower body) did not appear in Wednesday's 89-66 loss against Pittsburgh.

Impact Sylla has now missed three of the Yellow Jackets' last four games with a lower body injury as Georgia Tech was routed by Pittsburgh on Wednesday night. The 6-foot-10 freshman will have his next chance to return to action Saturday against NC State.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

GTD vs. Pitt Sylla (lower body) is listed as a game-time decision for Wednesday game against Pittsburgh.

Impact Sylla is in danger of missing his third matchup out of the the last four as he deals with a lower body injury. The freshman center's status will clear up closer to tipoff.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Wednesday Sylla (lower body) has been labeled questionable for Wednesday's game against Pittsburgh.

Impact Sylla has been tending to an unspecified lower body injury, and he's missed tow of GT's last three games. He'll be at risk of missing a third game Wednesday, due to the issue. He has started in all 15 games this season, but he played just two minutes in his last appearance.

JANUARY 13 • ROTOWIRE

Day-to-day with lower body injury Sylla (lower body) is day-to-day for Georgia Tech, per Kelly Quinlan of Rivals.com.

Impact Sylla missed two games for the Yellow Jackets, then returned to action against Miami only to be limited to two minutes. Now, the forward remains a question mark, as he's considered day-to-day. His continued absence would be a problem for Georgia Tech, as the freshman averages 10.2 points and 7.5 rebounds. Sylla will look to return on Jan. 14 against Pitt.

JANUARY 12 • ROTOWIRE

Shut out Saturday Sylla totaled zero points (0-1 FG) over two minutes during Saturday's 91-81 loss to Miami (FL).

Impact After missing two games with an ankle injury and entering the day with a "questionable" designation, Sylla was cleared to play and start. That decision ended up doing more harm than good for fantasy managers, as he logged just two minutes and didn't record a counting stat in the game. No word of re-injury has surfaced, but Sylla is a risky play, at best, heading into Wednesday's home matchup against Pitt.

JANUARY 12 • ROTOWIRE

Good to go Sylla (ankle) will play in Saturday's game against Miami

Impact Sylla was previously considered a game-time decision for Saturday's game, but he's been given the green light. The center has started in all 14 of his appearances this season, averaging 10.9 points, 8.0 rebounds and 1.4 blocks across 23.8 minutes. However, he has played just 14 minutes in each of his last three outings.

JANUARY 10 • ROTOWIRE

Game-time call Saturday Sylla (ankle) will be a game-time decision for Georgia Tech on Saturday at Miami, per Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact Sylla's availability will come right down to the wire. The freshman center, who's missed the past two games for the Yellow Jackets, will look to return against the Hurricanes but nothing is certain yet. He'll likely try to give it a go in warmups and take it from there. If Sylla can't play Saturday, expect Peyton Marshall to log another start.

Dealing with sprained ankle Sylla is battling a sprained ankle, per Alex Farrar of On3.com.

Impact Sylla didn't play in Georgia Tech's 65-53 win over Boston College, and the team is reportedly targeting the game at Miami on Jan. 10 as a potential return date. That means Sylla, who has started every game he's played this season and averages 10.9 points and 8.0 rebounds, isn't expected to miss any more time.

JANUARY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Out against Boston College Sylla (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's game against Boston College.

Impact Sylla has yet to miss a game this season and hasn't held an injury tag as of late, so his pop-up inactive status comes as a bit of a surprise. The freshman big man's next chance to play will be this upcoming Tuesday versus Syracuse. Fellow freshman center Cole Kirouac is likely to get the start in Sylla's place.
