USC guard Isaiah Collier suffered a major injury on Wednesday, as the freshman is expected to miss 4–6 weeks with a hand injury. The news is a big blow to the Trojans, as Collier is second on the team averaging 15.4 points a game and leads the team with 4.1 assists per game.
With Collier now out, USC will have to try and replace the former top recruit in the lineup, and the Trojans may turn to Bronny James. According to The Athletic’s Brian Bennett and Hunter Patterson, James could get a bump in minutes to fill Collier’s place on the court.
