Illinois guard Ayo Dosunmu suffered a broken nose in Tuesday's loss to Michigan State, according to Sports Illustrated's Pat Forde.

Dosunmu's status for the Fighting Illini's contest against Nebraska on Thursday is uncertain, per Forde. Illinois will then face Wisconsin on Saturday before a battle with fellow Final Four contender Michigan on March 2.

Dosunmu is a National Player of the Year candidate this season. He is averaging 21 points, 6.3 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game, notching a triple-double in two of his last four contests.
