Louisville to be without star freshman Mikel Brown against USF
"There's a possibility. I don't know how, I don't know if it's completely 100%. Like I said, man, this thing is just taking its slow, precious time and I'm leaning on my medical staff every single day to do any type of treatment, anything to try to get me back healthy."
"Shoot, it's like I said, it's taking its precious time, so I really don't have a gauge on if I'll be able to play on Saturday. Obviously, I do pray that I'm able to play on Saturday. But like I said, man, I've never been trained to go half-speed in any type of shape or form in anything that I do."
"When on the court, Brown was one of the most dynamic freshman guards in college basketball, averaging 18.2 points and 4.7 assists. The projected NBA lottery pick has produced some outstanding individual performances since initially returning from injury, including a 45-point, 9-rebound game against NC State in which he made 10 3-pointers."
Louisville star freshman guard Mikel Brown Jr. will miss the Cardinals' first-round NCAA tournament game against South Florida due to a back injury. The school stated he should remain out through the week if Louisville advances, though coach Pat Kelsey and Brown himself offered mixed signals about potential second-round availability. Brown indicated it was "possible" he could play over the weekend but expressed uncertainty about his recovery timeline. The injury has sidelined him for four consecutive games and eight games earlier in the season. When healthy, Brown has been one of college basketball's most dynamic freshman guards, averaging 18.2 points and 4.7 assists, with notable performances including a 45-point game against NC State.
