No. 19 Ohio State will be down a key contributor for a good amount of time this season. The program announced that senior forward Justice Sueing will be out for an extended amount of time due to an abdominal injury but is expected to be back at some point.
Ohio State announces Justice Sueing “will be out for an extended period of time after having an abdominal injury evaluated earlier this week,” but “is expected to return sometime this season.”
Chris Holtmann: “I know he will rest, rehab and be ready to go when he is healthy.”

Sueing was third on Ohio State in scoring last season with 10.7 points per game. The 6-foot-7, 215-pound player appeared in two games this season, averaging 6 points and 3.5 rebounds. Sueing was expected to be an integral part of the frontcourt along with fellow forward E.J. Liddell, who leads Ohio State with 22.3 points per game.
Ohio State is off to a 3-0 start this season, with victories vs. Akron, Niagara, and most recently Bowling Green. The Buckeyes fell to Oral Roberts in the first round of the NCAA Tournament last season and ended ranked No. 7 in the AP poll.
Next up for Ohio State is a road matchup at Xavier on Nov. 18 (6:30 p.m. EST/FS1).
