Syracuse, N.Y. -- Syracuse guard Howard Washington injured his right leg in practice on Monday, according to Syracuse director of athletic communications Pete Moore.

Moore said that doctors were still evaluating the extent of Washington's injury, but he would miss the Orange's game at Georgia Tech on Wednesday.

Moore said Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim will have more details on Washington's condition after the Georgia Tech game.

Washington, a 6-foot-3 freshman, had appeared in 18 games this season. He was averaging 1.1 points in 6.2 minutes per game.

Washington's injury leaves Syracuse with just six healthy and available players.

Matthew Moyer, a 6-8 forward who started the first 20 games of the season, has an injured left ankle. He suffered the injury in SU's win over Boston College last week and missed the Orange's game at Pittsburgh on Saturday.

Boeheim said after the Pitt game that Moyer would remain out for a while.

Syracuse will have starters Frank Howard, Tyus Battle, Oshae Brissett, Marek Dolezaj and Paschal Chukwu along with backup center Bourama Sidibe available for the Georgia Tech game.

Syracuse lost returning starter Taurean Thompson, a 6-10 rising sophomore, just before the start of the fall 2017 semester. Thompson abruptly transferred to Seton Hall.

In early December, Geno Thorpe, a 5th-year graduate transfer from South Florida, left the program. He had played in the Orange's first six games of the season, but wasn't happy with his role or his playing time.
