Solo in a boot?

[mauconnfan]

Saw him limping a little late, not good.

 

[gapere]

Just saw on ESPN that Solo Ball is in a boot with some kind of foot sprain according to Hurley. Anyone know anything more?

 

[uconnric]

Won’t practice today

 

[Nameless]

Apparently has a foot sprain of some kind

Ooof

 

[YearoftheHusky]

Will not practice today with a sprained foot. We can’t catch a break!

 

[Phoenixhusky]

He’ll play, he’s a warrior

 

[NJHusky]

Ooof

Time for Bray and JRoss to shine

Will not practice today with a sprained foot. We can’t catch a break!

Let’s see how Yaxel is doing too

 

[RashadRay11]

I saw it happen last night and pointed it out at the bar I was at, he was grimacing and limping for a bit. I have no doubt he will play. Dude has no quit or complain in him.

 

[UCLJ0211]

They did the same with Silas. My guess is the boot is precautionary to take pressure off of it. My money is on him playing tomorrow night.

 

[BugsyCT]

Well that's a bummer. Didn't know anything had happened to him during the game. Hopefully he can give some minutes tomorrow night.

Well that's a bummer. Didn't know anything had happened to him last night. Didn't see it in the game.

 

[Horatio]

Precautionary

 

[BFieldHusky]

He'll play. We need 20-25 minutes out of him, because this is a Ross/Stewart game off the bench to matchup with their size.

 

[Scoe]

Just have him sleep in a hyperbaric chamber.

 

[brihman]

He'll play. We need 20-25 minutes out of him, because this is a Ross/Stewart game off the bench to matchup with their size.

He’s got a heart of a champion and is a big reason we are here. I hope he plays.

 

[BFieldHusky]

He’s got a heart of a champion and is a big reason we are here. I hope he plays.

My concern is can he move laterally. I worry Michigan will go right at him defensively.

 

[MexicoHusky]

Complicates things :-(

 

[Scoe]

Just shoot Solo and rest the foot, fortunately our game plan will have to be to play a half court game.

 

[WhereistheDove?]

My concern is can he move laterally. I worry Michigan will go right at him defensively.

All due respect, Michigan is going right at him defensively regardless.

 

[k-walk]

My concern is can he move laterally. I worry Michigan will go right at him defensively.

He already can’t move laterally shouldn’t be too big of a drop off

 

[Hoophound]

Solo will be fine doing what he does. He’s used to playing hurt, struggling and hearing criticism. He steps up over and over when he has to.

 

[UConnRock]

The ankle injury will offset the wrist injury and Solo will shoot lights out.

Time for Bray and JRoss to shine

and Stewart.

 

[3rdbass]

Not great news but let's hope he can still give us decent minutes and make some key shots like the Illinois game. He was pivotal in the 2nd half with the lineup we had in there to hold the lead to 10 until our starters came back in.

 

[Scoe]

Less minutes and more effective minutes for Solo, can work on his foot when he comes out of the game. Training staff will really be on the clock non stop. Solo off the bench is also an option.

 

[Henry]

My concern is can he move laterally. I worry Michigan will go right at him defensively.

Michigan would likely go right at him even without the foot sprain.

 

[The Viking]

Not good when a shooter has a bad foot and bad wrist

 

[Kitaman]

Last game/Championship even if they chop his foot off, he'll still play. He may pay for it later but not tomorrow night.
