ESPN's Andy Katz reports that UCLA junior forward Alfred Aboya suffered an orbital floor fracture below his right eye during Friday night's win over Yale at Pauley Pavilion, putting yet another Bruins player out of commission. It is not clear yet whether Aboya, who has played about 22 minutes a game in the Bruins' first five games, will be able to play with a mask or whether he'll need surgery, which would keep him out for a significant time.
As Katz notes, injuries UCLA is going through a rough stretch with injuries. Darren Collison hasn't played this season because of a sprained knee, Michael Roll hasn't played this season because of a ruptured plantar fascia, and James Keefe is out after shoulder surgery.
Still, UCLA should be fine. Everyone is expected back this season, and with the exception of next weekend's game against Texas, the Bruins' schedule features about six weeks of cupcakes before things get difficult.
