Big double-double in OT win Osunniyi totaled 15 points (6-12 FG, 3-3 FT), 15 rebounds, two assists, four blocks and one steal over 43 minutes during Tuesday's 80-76 1OT victory over La Salle.

Impact Osunniyi set new season highs in both rebounding and minutes played, showing he'll definitely continue to be a driving factor inside as Atlantic Ten play commences. The Bonnies hadn't played a game since Dec. 17 prior to Tuesday, but with COVID issues hopefully in the past, Osunniyi should be in the clear to be a steady fantasy producer the rest of the way out. The fourth-year center is in the midst of his third consecutive season averaging double figures, and while his rebounding is down a bit, there will be plenty of opportunities to get that back up to par.

Gets green light to play Osunniyi (back) is available for Thursday's game against BoiseState, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Osunniyi was participating in warmups early, foreshadowing his availability for the contest. The senior serves as the Bonnies' primary rim protector, racking up a total of nine blocks over the first two games to go along with 14 points and 10 boards. He figures to resume his duties in the starting lineup in this one and should log more than the 13 minutes he saw versus Canisius as long as his back holds up.

NOVEMBER 18, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Dressed for warmups Osunniyi (back) appears dressed prior to Tuesday's showdown with Boise State, Chuckie Maggio of USA Today reports.

Impact Osunniyi appeared to aggravate a back injury in a Nov. 14 contest in which he saw an uncharacteristically-low 13 minutes. He had been hopeful to suit up Thursday all along, and this is certainly a positive sign.

NOVEMBER 18, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Hopeful to play Thursday Coach Mark Schmidt said that he hopes Osunniyi (back) is able to play Thursday against Boise State, Jonah Bronstein of the Associated Press reports

Impact Osunniyi is dealing with a back issue that has caused him to be unable to finish each of the first two games this season. This is definitely something that could be a long-term concern this season going forward. We'll have to wait and see if Osunniyi is able to suit up Thursday.

NOVEMBER 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Possibly aggravates injury Osunniyi closed Sunday's 69-60 win over Canisius with five points (2-4 FG, 1-1 FT), four rebounds and two blocks over 13 minutes.

Impact Osunniyi was back in the starting five after aggravating a back injury in the season opener, but it seems he took a hard full in the first half and did not see the court for the entirety of the second. St. Bonaventure was barely able to hang on without him, though it still managed a nine-point victory with Abdoul Karim Coulibaly taking on most of the center minutes. The Bonnies get another non-conference test against Boise State on Thursday, but it's likely too early to tell in what capacity the fourth-year center might be able to contribute.

No. 23 St. Bonaventure rallies late to beat Canisius 69-60

Kyle Lofton and Jaren Holmes scored 17 points apiece, and No. 23 St. Bonaventure rallied for a 69-60 win against Canisius on Sunday

NOVEMBER 15, 2021 • Associated Press

Starting Sunday Osunniyi is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against Canisius.

Impact Osunniyi will remain in the starting lineup despite editing Tuesday's contest with a back issue. The 6-10 senior notably had seven blocks in the season opener and will look to continue to assert his dominance in the paint.

NOVEMBER 14, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Likely available Sunday Coach Mark Schmidt said Osunniyi (back) is expected to be available for Sunday's contest against Canisius, Rachel Lenzi of the Buffalo News reports.

Impact Osunniyi notched nine points, seven blocks and six rebounds before aggravating a back injury during Tuesday's season opener. However, he appears to have avoided any serious injury and will likely be available for Sunday's meeting with Canisius.
