Zoom Diallo - DNP for exhibition game Diallo (undisclosed) did not play during Sunday's exhibition game against UNLV, according to Percy Allen of The Seattle Times.
Impact An injury bug is affecting Washington, and Diallo may be another victim, though his problem is undisclosed. Having finished the 2024-25 Huskies' season as their starting point guard, he will aim to keep a big role. However, Diallo can only do that by staying healthy, which he will look to be when they begin their regular season Nov. 3 against Arkansas-Pine Bluff.

Quimari Peterson - Hamstring injured before season Peterson (hamstring) did not play during Sunday's exhibition game against UNLV, according to Percy Allen of The Seattle Times.
Impact A hamstring injury will be why Peterson enters Washington's season opener questionable, at least for the time being. After averaging nearly 20.0 points and 3.0 three-pointers made last season, he made a big jump in competition by transferring from East Tennessee State to Washington. To make the move worthwhile, Peterson's objective is maximizing his time, though it is not for certain he can do that.

Desmond Claude - Ankle injury causes exhibition DNP Claude (ankle) did not play during Sunday's exhibition game against UNLV, according to Percy Allen of The Seattle Times.
Impact Washington's 2025-26 team logged its only exhibition game without Claude, meaning he has no in-game opportunity to acclimate before the Huskies begin their regular season Nov. 6 against Denver. Considered to be one of the Big Ten Conference's most proven guards, them not having him available would be big. The severity of Claude's ankle injury is unknown, with his only certainty being a questionable status.

Christian Nitu - Held out with toe injury Nitu (toe) is currently unavailable for Washington and there's no clear time-table for his return, per Percy Allen of The Seattle Times.
Impact Nitu spent 2024-2025 with Florida State, but only averaged 6.9 minutes across 22 games. The forward's status for the Huskies' season opener is now in jeopardy, and Washington's front court as a whole is banged up as Mady Traore is out for the year and Jacob Ognacevic is out for three moths.
OCTOBER 9 • ROTOWIRE
Mady Traore - Shut down for 2025-2026 Traore will miss the 2025-2026 season after he suffered a foot injury in practice, per Percy Allen of The Seattle Times.
Impact Traore transferred to Washington in June after playing one year for JUCO Frank Phillips College. Prior to that, he played for New Mexico State and Maryland. Traore was expected to be a backup member of the Huskies' front court, but he's now forced to miss what would be his senior season.
OCTOBER 9 • ROTOWIRE
Jacob Ognacevic - Out for three months Ognacevic will be sidelined for three months after injuring his foot in practice, per Percy Allen of The Seattle Times.
Impact Ognacevic was set to be a starting member of the Huskies' front court after transferring over from Lipscomb, where he averaged 20.0 points, 7.9 rebounds and 1.4 assists last season. This is a tough blow for Washington, and now sophomore forward Bryson Tucker, also a transfer, will likely be asked to step up in his absence. Ognacevic's timetable for a return puts him in action in mid-December.
