Jordan Hawkins - Possibly injured again Hawkins recorded zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) over five minutes during Wednesday's 64-62 loss to Creighton.
Impact According to Shreyas, Hawkins appeared "a bit shaken up" at some point late in the first half, and other accounts of the events seem to suggest he took another shot to the head. The status of Hawkins was a bit shaky for this game after taking a blow to the head in the previous contest, so Hawkins will presumably have to clear some type of concussion protocol before suiting up again. His next chance will be the regular season finale Saturday against DePaul.

Adama Sanogo - Plays through finger injury Sanogo ended Wednesday's 64-62 loss to Creighton with 13 points (6-16 FG, 1-2 FT), 16 rebounds, six blocks and one steal over 37 minutes.
Impact Sanogo was forced to exit this game in the first half, but according to SB Nation, he returned with the ring and pinky fingers on his left hand taped up. Per David Borges of Hearst Media, Sanogo dislocated his pinky finger before trainers popped it back into place. The second-year center then proceeded to have a magnificent game on the glass, matching his second-highest rebounding total of the season and recording his first double-double since Feb. 16. It appears unlikely that this injury will force him to miss any time, and if it limits his play on the court, it at least wasn't evident in this contest.
