Role on the decline? Dread notched three points (1-3 FG, 1-3 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal across 20 minutes during Sunday's 76-64 loss to Ohio State.

Impact Dread had started the previous four games for the Nittany Lions and saw 31 or more minutes in each, even reaching double figures twice. He was passed up for Jaheam Cornwall on Sunday, however, and the Gardner-Webb transfer finished with six points on 1-for-5 shooting across 32 minutes. Dread's production has been on the steady decline since his freshman season at Penn State, where he started 28 of 32 games and averaged 8.3 ppg. He's currently averaging a career-low 32.7 percent from the field while recording a career-high 1.3 turnovers per contest, which is seemingly enough to drop him off the fantasy radar outside of deeper, Big Ten-only formats.

Slated to sit Thursday Dread (shoulder) has his arm in a sling ahead of Thursday's game against Rutgers, suggesting he will miss the contest, Eliot Hayes of CNHI reports.

Impact Dread departed Tuesday's game against Illinois in the first half after injuring his shoulder and has apparently done enough damage to the area to warrant at least another game on the sidelines. Abdou Tsimbila picked up some extra minutes following his early departure and could be in line for additional run again Thursday.

Early exit with shoulder injury Dread exited Tuesday's matchup against Illinois in the first half with a shoulder injury, Jeremy Werner of 247 Sports reports.

Impact Dread was limited to six points and his second-lowest minutes total of the year with 12. In his absence, Myreon Jones led the Nittany Lions with 20 points, while Sam Sessoms logged 24 minutes off the bench (though he went scoreless on 0-for-6 shooting). Dread should be considered a game-time call Thursday against Rutgers as Penn State looks to pick up its first win in conference play.

Plays 34 minutes off bench Dread posted 14 points (5-8 FG, 4-6 3Pt), six rebounds, three steals and one assist over 34 minutes in Sunday's 98-92 loss to Seton Hall.

Impact Dread didn't see excessive playing time during the Nittany Lions' first two games of the season, but his usage spiked Sunday as several starters got into some foul trouble during the overtime loss. It's unclear whether the junior's increased minutes will continue, but Dread proved that he can still be productive when he's given the chance.
