The SEC injury report has been released ahead of Wednesday’s clash between the Oklahoma Sooners and Kentucky Wildcats.
For Kentucky, the hope was that one of Jaxson Robinson and/or Lamont Butler would be back for this one, especially after Mark Pope announced that both injured guards were practicing, albeit in a modified setup.
Then came word that Kentucky actually opened as a slight favorite at Oklahoma, which is hard to see unless one of those two is back in the lineup (Kentucky is just 2-6 in true road games and doesn’t have a road win without Robinson in the lineup).
As it turns out, Butler and Robinson are both PROBABLE, so they have a high chance of suiting up on Wednesday. That’s massive news for Kentucky, who has proven to be one of the most dangerous teams in college basketball when healthy, something we’ve rarely seen since the start of SEC play.
Senior guard Kerr Kriisa remains out indefinitely.
For the Sooners, they were expected to come into this game rather healthy…with the exception of Duke Miles’ teeth. The redshirt senior suffered several broken teeth while diving for a loose ball in last Saturday’s win over Mississippi State, though he later returned toward the end of regulation after briefly exiting.
Other than that, everyone is good to go for the Sooners, as no one is listed on the injury update.
