UMass Lowell's 6-foot-9 junior center Ali Kanaan received clearance this week to begin practicing again. He has been out since November 29, and he missed the last six games with a broken bone in his left hand (his shooting hand).
Kanaan averaged 6.0 rebounds and 6.8 points in the first five games of the season. Despite missing six games, he still leads the team with 11 blocked shots.
Freshman center John Carbacio started six games in Kanaan's abscence.
Kanaan did not make the trip to New York with UMass Lowell for the Pace University Holiday Classic. He could play as early as Saturday as the River Hawks (8-3, 3-3 NE-10) host St. Michael's.
