Logan Duncomb - Will be available Sunday Duncomb (lower body) will be available for Sunday's game against Villanova, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.

Impact Duncomb had just over a week to recover from the lower-body injury that kept him out of Notre Dame's latest exhibition, and his recovery time was just enough to suit up for the Fighting Irish's regular-season opener. Last season, he broke out by averaging 18.3 points and 8.9 rebounds across 32 games (28 starts) for Winthrop, the senior's second school (after Indiana) before he transferred to Notre Dame. Duncomb's role with the Irish is unclear considering he only played four minutes between their preseason's two exhibition games, though the big man did start, suggesting he may have a legitimate role with his new team.
