Any word on Akok's knee issue?

[HuskylnSC]

I read where he has been dealing with some knee issues in the Courant. Does anyone know if this is a chronic situation or just an incident of tendinitis or something similar?

Team didn't practice yesterday, and he got treatment. I understand its a game time decision. I expect he'll give it a go, but will be delicately managed.

My one fear with Akok has been an injury of some sort, especially given his slight build. If he can stay healthy, he has such a high ceiling. We really missed him in the second half against Xavier. Having a great rim protector really chamges the game.

Might not be good. Link: Akok's Status

Hopefully it's an over reaction as was the sprained ankle for Al.

Probably best to hold him out tbh. That gives him 9 straight days off. No need to mess with a big guy's knees early in the year.

I suspect his knee flare ups will closely track his post defense.

According to Amore on Twitter, Akok is dressed and looks like hes going to play

This is why one should never rely on Yard health reports. I never learn.

dr. boneyard never lies, it's just that sometimes, she's drunk as a skunk. blotto. pro tip -smell her breath, then decide.

I get being cautious, but he looks completely healthy today. Keeping him out on Friday may have cost us that game.
