Gets starting nod Ball will get the start in UConn's opener.

Impact Ball played well in the Huskies' exhibition game, and appears to have parlayed that into a starting spot in the opener. Roles were reportedly very up-for-grabs up and down UConn's depth chart this season, and Ball looks like one of the players to take early advantage of that.

Leads way in exhibition game Ball had a game-high 18 points (7-10 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, two steals, two blocks and an assist in Monday's exhibition win over Rhode Island.

Impact Ball was certainly efficient in just 20 minutes of action. He was part of the UConn starting five along with Alex Karaban, Liam McNeeley, Samson Johnson and Hassan Diarra. St. Mary's transfer Aidan Mahaney, who is the most likely candidate to take Ball's starting spot once the season starts, also had a good game scoring 17 points in 23 minutes of action. UConn opens the regular season on Nov. 6 against Sacred Heart.

Falling out of rotation Ball did not take the court in Saturday's 78-54 victory over Villanova.

Impact Ball saw significant run earlier in the season and even started a 10-game stretch while Stephon Castle was battling a knee injury, but Ball's playing time has dipped significantly of late. He saw just a combined three minutes over UConn's last two games before sitting out entirely for the first time all season Saturday. No word of an injury has surfaced, so it looks like Ball is simply a victim of the rotation tightening up down the stretch.

Quiet stretch continues Ball had three points (1-8 FG, 1-6 3Pt), five rebounds and two assists in 28 minutes during Monday's 84-64 victory over New Hampshire.

Impact Ball's scoring total has now declined in four consecutive games, and he's failed to exceed 10 points since a blowout victory over Mississippi Valley State on Nov. 14. The 6-foot-3 freshman is currently far removed from fantasy radar.

Gets spot start on Tuesday Ball is in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against Mississippi Valley State, Joe Arruda of the Hartford Courant reports.

Impact Ball will get the start in this one with fellow freshman Stephon Castle out with an injury. Ball has been solid off the bench this season and will not get a shot for an expanded role in this contest.
