The 6-foot-8 senior missed the first half of the season with a nagging foot issue and had rejoined the team in mid-January. The severity of the setback is currently unknown, but his next chance to return will come against USC on Wednesday.

Franck Kepnang - Possible return soon Head coach Danny Sprinkle indicated that Kepnang (leg) may be able to return as soon as Wednesday, per Dan Raley of SI.com.

Impact Kepnang has missed each of the last two contests due to lingering leg soreness but could be closing in on a return. The 6-foot-11 big man has averaged 6.2 points and 6.3 rebounds per game across 27 contests for the Huskies this season. If he is unable to return against USC on Wednesday, his next chance will come against his former school when the Huskies travel to face Oregon on Saturday.

Zoom Diallo - Scores 21 as Huskies fall Diallo closed with 21 points (9-15 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-5 FT), two rebounds and four assists over 35 minutes during Saturday's 90-73 loss to Wisconsin.

Impact It was a seven-game scoring high for Diallo, who helped the Huskies keep things close early on before the Badgers eventually caught fire from distance. Washington may not be long for this season, but Diallo has proven to be a capable building block. He's second on the team with a 14.9 ppg scoring average, proving a capable replacement to Desmond Claude following his season-ending ankle injury.

Bryson Tucker - DNP for personal reasons Tucker did not take the court in Saturday's 90-73 loss to Wisconsin due to a personal matter, according to head coach Danny Sprinkle (via Danny Williams of UW Daily Sports).

Impact Tucker was not listed on the availability report, and it would have taken a keen and familiar eye to notice he was missing during pregame warmups. It was the eighth game missed for Tucker this season, who has dealt with various injuries in addition to this personal matter. At one point, the sophomore had started 10 games in a row, averaging 6.8 ppg and 4.2 rpg across 25.8 mpg. Now, it's uncertain what, if anything, he'll be able to bring the Huskies down the stretch.

Jacob Ognacevic - Out vs. Wisconsin Ognacevic (undisclosed) is out for Saturday's game against Wisconsin.

Impact Because of the Washington team's injury troubles, Ognacevic instantly became a regular part of UW's rotation upon his recovery from a long-term foot problem. However, another problem will render him out for the battle of the UW schools, rendering an already-hindered Huskies team with even fewer players available. Assuming that Ognacevic's last year of collegiate eligibility will go through this season, he will try to make a quick turnaround for March.

Franck Kepnang - Out again Saturday Kepnang (undisclosed) won't play Saturday against Wisconsin.

Impact It'll be the second straight game Kepnang has missed. The senior had started 25 of Washington's first 27 games this season, averaging 6.2 points and 6.3 rebounds in 22.8 minutes. Lathan Sommerville figures to start at center again in Kepnang's absence.
