Manson was hurt midway through Monday's game and did not return, playing just 10:17 TOI. Head coach Dallas Eakins said that he is unsure about Manson's availability for Wednesday and that he considers him day-to-day until the medical staff tells him differently. If Manson can't go on Wednesday, look for Josh Mahura to draw back into the lineup.
