Their status for the game against the Seminoles is unknown.
Florida State Coming In: Florida State is the 13th best scoring team in the ACC but fifth best defensive scoring squad.

Jones leads the team in scoring (13.8 ppg) and rebounds (6.5 rpg). Jackson leads the team in assists and shoots over 35% from three. Weber is the team's best three point shooter by percentage at 39.7%. Sammie Puisis has taken the most threes this season, 103, nearly double the attempts of the next highest volume shooter. Puisis is shooting just 28% from beyond the arc.
