Watched most of the game today. Was there anything said about what happened to Disu in the early part of the 2nd half. Ankle? Knee?

Big games this week with Creighton and then Illinois on the 6th.

It appeared his ankle got rolled by another player during the rebound.

 
Thanks Huskie1.  Watching the play and the replay couldn't tell if he had rolled his ankle, or it was knee to knee, or possibly both.  Would hate to lose him for any amount of time. So, if he is fine that is great news. Big game Thursday night at moody with Creighton coming in. They should be around #10 ranking. 

BTW, it was good and bad news with Kansas losing, but to what looks to be a really good with size Tennessee team that we have to face at their place. Also, ISU are they that good or is UNC a hot/cold shooting team like last year?

Big win last night! Shooting still the biggest weakness.

I'm not a big basketball expert but watching our guys shoot the 3, I think we A. Pick good opportunities for the 3 ball B. miss by a small margin. I saw lots of shots hit the inside of the rim last night and bounce out.

I think we will have games were we hit 40% of our 3s and will basically be unbeatable if that happens (see Gonzaga game). Other games, we may hit 20% because our shooters aren't great but our defense, fast break and overall athleticism will carry us (see Creighton game). 

 
Folks, we're playing ranked Illinois tonight at Madison Square Garden. Tip-off at 6. This thread should be bobbing around like a beach ball today.
