Sam Walters - Sits Wednesday after all Walters (undisclosed) did not take the court in Wednesday's 77-76 victory over Virginia Tech.

Impact Walters missed Saturday's game against Duke with an undisclosed injury, and while he wasn't listed with an injury on the availability report Wednesday, the junior forward did not end up taking the court. Walters averages less than 10 minutes per contest anyway, and with the improved recent play of freshman center Jaden Toombs, the absence of Walters may not be health-related. His next chance to take the court will be Saturday against Virginia.

Men's CBK AP Top 25: Iowa State Gets No. 2 Spot After Michigan Loss, Vandy in Top 10

Jaden Toombs - Career day despite defeat Toombs totaled 23 points (10-12 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds and one steal across 34 minutes during Saturday's 82-75 loss to Duke.

Impact Toombs missed the first 10 games of the season with a wrist injury, and his usage had been highly inconsistent even after getting cleared, serving essentially as the backup center to Samet Yigitoglu. Coach Andy Enfield switched things up Saturday and gave Toombs his first start of the season, and the freshman paid it back with career highs in scoring and rebounding against a tough Duke frontline. It still wasn't enough to knock off one of the top teams in the country on their home court, but Toombs more than showed he can take advantage of an expanded role when given the opportunity. It's unclear if Enfield will use the same lineup Wednesday against Virginia Tech, however.

Boopie Miller - Still ill, day-to-day Miller (illness) is day-to-day, according to Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News.

Impact According to Billy Embody of On3.com, a physical illness is why Miller did not play SMU's 82-75 loss Saturday at Duke. Assimakopoulos indicates that SMU will monitor him Monday and Tuesday. The latter day will see his injury status get publicly updated before Wednesday's game against Virginia Tech. Miller has arguably been the ACC's best player this season, so both SMU and VT will be intent on knowing his midweek availability.
