Tibet Gorener - College Basketball News & Rumors | FOX Sports

Back to bench role Gorener is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against California.

Impact Gorener started against NC State on Saturday, grabbing one rebound and not attempting a single shot on 13 minutes, and he'll return to a more familiar bench role this time. He's played more than 10 minutes just seven times this season, so he's not expected to have a big role in fantasy regardless of his role.

Plays 29 minutes Gorener (illness) finished with three points (1-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt) and two rebounds in 29 minutes during Tuesday's 70-62 loss to Fresno State.

Impact Fortunately for Gorener, he sat out only once because of the illness that caused him to sit out when San Jose State hosted Wyoming on Saturday. The big man is expected to continue being a frequently-used backup for starters Sage Tolbert and Ibrahima Diallo.

Won't play Saturday Gorener is unavailable for Saturday's game versus Wyoming due to an illness, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Gorener will miss at least Saturday's action while sidelined with an illness. The 6-9 sophomore has been solid as the team's sixth-man this year, averaging 6.2 points and two rebounds over 19.4 minutes per contest. He'll try to return Tuesday when the team travels to face Fresno State.

Underperforms in loss Gorener provided four points (2-6 FG, 0-4 3Pt), one rebound and one assist over 20 minutes during Saturday's 72-51 loss to San Diego State.

Impact The sophomore couldn't find any rhythm on offense as he missed all four three-point shots taken and only provided four points in 20 minutes played. Gorener has proven to be one of the first players to come off the bench, so expect him to show more production moving forward.

Set to rejoin lineup Gorener is slated to rejoin the starting lineup for Saturday's game versus Pacific, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Gorener was limited to just five minutes in his return to action Monday versus Pepperdine but should be in line for a much larger role Saturday. The sophomore posted double-digit scoring efforts in half of the six games he appeared in prior to missing a contest due to illness.

DECEMBER 11, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Limited in return Gorener (illness) finished with zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) over five minutes during Monday's 82-69 loss to Pepperdine.

Impact Gorener went from starting back-to-back contests to logging a season-low minutes total following his return from a one-game absence, suggesting he may not be at 100 percent just yet. Still the Arizona transfer appears clear to take the floor and will likely be able to suit up Saturday against Pacific.

DECEMBER 7, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Won't suit up Friday Gorener will not take the floor Friday against North Dakota due to a non-COVID illness, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Gorener joined the Spartans during the offseaso as a transfer from Arizona and has taken on a large role in the rotation early in the season, averaging 26 minutes over the first six games. Given the nature of his absence, it seems unlikely the sophomore will be sidelined for a long period of time. His next chance to play arrives Monday at Pepperdine.
