Unphased by injury Ejiofor (ankle) sustained an apparent left ankle injury during Saturday's game against Providence, Maxwell Cohen of the Red Storm Recap reports.

Impact Ejiofor left for the locker room near the midpoint of the first half after coming down hard on his left ankle. The 6-foot-9 junior was able to check back in after just a few minutes according to Bill Koch of The Providence Journal, but it could be worth monitoring this week for any lingering issues.

Among Big East leaders on glass Ejiofor ended Tuesday's 66-41 win over Georgetown with 13 points (5-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-3 FT), nine rebounds and two steals over 34 minutes.

Impact Ejiofor has been as consistent as they come for St. John's, as he's now reached double figures in 13 consecutive contests while largely avoiding foul trouble the entire season. While he's gone five games in a row without a double-double, he's still recording 8.8 rpg over that span and posting a career-best 8.2 rpg mark on the year.
