Texas A&M’s Mackenzie Mgbako Out for Season With Foot Injury

First-year coach Bucky McMillan must reshape the Aggies’ rotation as SEC play begins.

Overview

  • McMillan confirmed after Monday's 111-82 win over Prairie View A&M that the Indiana transfer will miss the rest of the 2025–26 season, noting the injury will not affect Mgbako’s career.
  • The setback follows a preseason foot issue and offseason surgery that already cost Mgbako the first five games before his seven-game return.
  • In limited action he averaged about 10.2–10.4 points and 4.9 rebounds, with Texas A&M going 6-1 in games he played.
  • Rothstein first reported the season-ending news as the program prepares to redistribute minutes and production across the frontcourt and backcourt.
  • Forwards Zach Clemence, Jamie Vinson, and Rashaun Agee, along with guards Pop Isaacs, Rylan Griffen, Ruben Dominguez, Jacari Lane, and Marcus Hill, are expected to take on larger roles as A&M opens SEC play against LSU on Saturday.
