Ven-Allen Lubin will miss Notre Dame’s game vs. Wake Forest
Mike Brey had “hope” that Ven-Allen Lubin would be ready for Notre Dame’s contest against Wake Forest. He said as much after the Irish beat Louisville ahead of a week off of games. It turns a week won’t be enough time for the tendon in his left ankle to heal. The freshman forward will not play against the Deacons.
Lubin aggravated his ankle in practice the day before the Irish’s win over the Cardinals. That opened up a spot for Dom Campbell in the rotation for that game, but he only played four minutes. Many Irish fans didn’t like Brey giving Campbell so little time, but that also was part of the criticism for him not going deeper into his bench against an inferior opponent. It will be interesting to see if Brey mainly plays only six players again.
