Some bad news
-
@BeddieKU23 rim?
-
Seems like the most likely culprit
-
Time for Bragg to show up
-
Lightfoot and Colby, Good Luck. Landon welcome the increased minutes. I hope every game you play is similar to last season’s UWV game.
-
My go to answer would be Zenger…
-
Just like with Bragg’s situation, we need to wait and see what the doctor’s say. We can’t say with any certainty whether it is broken or not. The good thing is we don’t need him necessarily for tomorrow - UNLV is pretty bad and got beat by 49 when they played Puke.
-
@JayHawkFanToo SZ for what?
-
Doke’s injury…you know he had to be involved; he will probably have the X-Rays on EBay…
-
@JayHawkFanToo oh.
-
By looking at the picture, looks like a soft wrist brace/immobilizer and not a hand brace; the hand does not appear to be swollen. If his hand was broken he would have had surgery and be wearing a hard hand cast instead. Based on my very limited personal experience, looks like a wrist sprain or maybe a hairline fracture they hope will heal without surgery but I could be way off. Any doctors in the house? Isn’t @ralster one?
-
Dang. On one hand, he isn’t playing huge minutes but on the other the team is thin in the post as is and this slows his development.
-
@JayHawkFanToo you stay at a holiday inn last night?
-
No, but I played doctor in my younger years…
-
@JayHawkFanToo So you know all about swelling.
-
When I played doctor? Of course.
-
Looks like a bowling wrist support
-
Hearing its ligament damage? Whatever it is, he is out for remainder of the season.
-
Udoka Azubuike will miss the remainder of the 2016-17 season due to a left wrist injury, Bill Self said Wednesday. #kubball
-
@Eric-san what?
-
Crap.
-
@Ralph omg…

-
shit.
-
Is this a haunted front court this season, or what?
-
Bad news indeed. Here is the link…
-
Do we know how?
-
Mitchell Lightfoot, get ready, dude.
Maybe wear some ankle weights to get yourself up to 220. :bowtie:
-
shit.
-
This is actually good news.
Self gets bored when things go right.
-
Even less depth in the post. 9 scholarship players. Ouch.
-
@BShark good thing we been working on 4 guard line up. Bragg has to step up
-
This could be the beginning of Tyler Self in the front court rotation.
Josh Jackson, time to start working on the hook shot.
-
God help me, I do love the smell of basketball napalm in the morning.

You are starting to sound really creepy…
-
We are not on the f&(#@(_($ naughty list Santa! Wtf?
-
I wanted Lightfoot to have a breakout year but not like this. I feel bad for the big guy.
-
The frosh big curse continues.
-
shit.
-
Well bright side, doke didn’t play many minutes last game. Need help here, ahhhh
-
This is LL’s chance to prove he can play like he did at the end of last year. If he can do that…for the most part…we’ll be OK. Bragg in there when we go 2 bigs…Coleby off the bench and Lightfoot when needed. Not ideal,…but the other guys have to step up.
-
This really hurts. We will really need Bragg and Coleby to steup up now.
-
There is no bright side to this, unfortunately.
-
@Hawk8086 you are right. The other guys have no choice but to step up and play well. Not having Doke will be noticed against big teams like Baylor and Kentucky but that just means our guards will have to apply a lot of ball pressure just like Nova.
-
I’m more worried about next year and the loss of experience. Dok needed this year. Watching Bragg lets me know how much work it takes.
-
As for this year, I’m hoping it galvanizes the post players. Lucas no longer needs to look over his shoulder. Bragg needs to accept the responsibility of starters minutes. Lightfoot needs to make a freakin’ free throw so he can play.
-
Lightfoot is a PF/C in a wing’s body, God bless him. He and Coleby will be pressed into service though, that’s for sure.
-
@dylans exactly - time to be men and own their spots. No excuses for any of them
-
@HawkChamp only thing is Coach says Coleby still not right, says he is dragging leg, so you can’t really count on him - - gonna big huge problem when Landen gets in foul trouble for sure. - - Mitch just DOES NOT have the muscle to compete inside this year,- - -Bragg reluctant to bang inside - - - Coleby still not recovered this sucks - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer54 structurally Coleby is fine according to Coach, so that will have to do. The others will have to have the discipline to play without fouling. Coleby and Lightfoot will have to play in order to give our guards some rest.
-
Doke is gone for the year.
Sorry, guess that was revealed in the link above.
