The Bruins have the day off, and they need it.

A run of injuries in early practices now includes senior guard Michael Roll, who sprained his right ankle and is scheduled to see a doctor today.

Sophomore center J’mison Morgan (left knee), sophomore guard Jerime Anderson (left groin), sophomore guard Malcolm Lee (concussion) and freshman forward Brendan Lane (left ankle) will also be evaluated today after missing practice last week.

Senior forward James Keefe (left shoulder) and freshman forward Mike Moser (lower back) were able to return to action in recent days. Keefe is expected to be cleared for full-contact work tomorrow.
