Reese Dixon-Waters - College Basketball News & Rumors

Out six-to-eight weeks Waters is out six-to-eight weeks due to a foot injury, per Mark Zeigler of The San Diego Union-Tribune.

Impact Waters was diagnosed with a navicular stress fracture in his right foot that will keep him out for at least six weeks, potentially longer than eight too. The injury explains why he did not participate in San Diego State's preseason exhibition against UCLA. For now, the plan is to have Waters wear a protective boot for five weeks and re-evaluate thereafter, hoping one week or just a little over than that is all it takes to get him cleared. Currently, the earliest he can play is a Dec. 7 game against San Diego, after sitting out six games in November and another matchup in December at Fresno State.

Impressive outing off the bench Waters closed Tuesday's 68-63 loss to Utah State with 11 points (4-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and three assists across 26 minutes.

Impact Waters helped San Diego State stay afloat during Tuesday's loss, finishing as the Aztecs' second-leading scorer with 17 points while shooting an efficient 50 percent from the field and 100 percent from the free-throw line. The 6-foot-6 junior was able to break out of a recent shooting slump as well, posting 10-plus points for the first time in the Aztecs' last four contests. Expect San Diego State's second-leading scorer (11.2 points per game) to continue supplying points as the team takes on Fresno State on Feb. 24.

Used as substitute Waters (ankle) logged four points (2-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists across his 22 minutes during San Diego State's 72-61 win Saturday against UNLV.

Impact It marked only the second time San Diego State's team used Waters as a substitute. Like the first time, he did not play relatively well, scoring only four points on two field goals with more than five attempts. Ideally for Waters, he returns to San Diego State's starting lineup, in which the junior has thrived with averages of 14.0 points and 3.9 rebounds.

Game-time decision Saturday Dixon-Waters (ankle) is a game-time decision for the Aztecs' game Saturday against UNLV, according to Jon Schaeffer of XTRA 1360.

Impact According to Mark Zeigler of the San Diego Union-Tribune, Dixon-Waters rolled one of his ankles while warming up for the Aztecs' game Wednesday against Fresno State. He logged 10 minutes before bailing out of their matchup early. So now, Waters' availability will be a game-time decision prior to them playing again but against UNLV.

Logs first career double-double Dixon-Waters totaled 11 points (3-7 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist and one steal over 35 minutes during Saturday's 63-62 victory over UC Irvine.

Impact In his first year with the Aztecs after three seasons at USC, Dixon-Waters has excelled as a regular starter in his new home, despite playing with a slower-tempo system. His 14.1 ppg scoring average is the second-best mark on the team after Jaedon LeDee (22.8 ppg), who sat out Saturday with an undisclosed injury. LeDee's absence opened up more opportunities on the glass, and DIxon-Waters took advantage, posting a career-best rebounding total to go along with his first career double-double.
