Leads Louisville in road win Fru notched 17 points (7-7 FG, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two blocks over 25 minutes during Saturday's 88-80 victory over Wake Forest.

Impact After scoring just seven points combined in games against Duke and SMU to close out January, Fru scored a dozen against Notre Dame earlier this week before posting his second-best scoring total of the year Saturday. The 6-11 junior was perfect from the field en route to leading all Louisville players in scoring. He'll look to keep things rolling with a quick turnaround, as Louisville hosts NC State on Monday.

Bounces back with season high Fru racked up 19 points (8-9 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-5 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal across 28 minutes during Saturday's 75-62 win over Boston College.

Impact Fru was coming off a bit of a dud earlier in the week against Duke, as foul trouble limited him to just one shot in 14 minutes. Even with the off game, the 6-11 center is still posting 13.4 points, 9.4 rebounds and 1.6 blocks over his last five games. The international prospect continues to excel for Louisville, essentially displacing incumbents Aly Khalifa and Kasean Pryor, which in turn gives the Cardinals plenty of depth at the center position.

Available at Stanford Fru (undisclosed) is available for Friday's game at Stanford.

Impact Fru is not on the injury report ahead of the away game, so he'll be good to go to take on Stanford. The 6-foot-11 center is averaging 10.8 points and 6.8 rebounds on 23.2 minutes across 13 starts this campaign. He's yet to miss a game this season.

Deemed probable Fru is probable for Friday's game versus Stanford.

Impact Fru has started every game for the Cardinals and is coming off his first double-double of the season. His appearance on Thursday's injury report is likely precautionary for something minor, though his status should be monitored going into Friday's action.

Team-high in victory Fru finished Saturday's 94-54 win over Montana with 18 points (9-11 FG, 0-1 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal across 23 minutes.

Impact It was a season-high scoring total for Fru, who also happened to lead the team on a day in which multiple other contributors had to step up due to the absence of second-leading scorer Mikel Brown (back). With competition set to ramp up a bit due to ACC play officially next week, expect Fru's game log to continue to inconsistent, especially once Brown returns.
