Prongos was on crutches after he left the Iowa game, and his status has been a big question all week. However, UCLA coach DeShaun Foster gave an update earlier in the week, per R.J. Abeytia. Foster was asked if Prongos was out for the year.

“No, no, no. Nothing bad, we’re probably going to hold him out a week and then he should maybe be able to come back for that crosstown game,” Foster said.
