Joshua Jefferson injury update: Will Iowa State star play today vs Kentucky?
Jefferson, a second-team All-American, suffered an ankle injury 2 1/2 minutes into the Friday’s game and did not return. He is listed as questionable, though Cyclones coach T.J. Otzelberger didn’t seem too optimistic.
“Right now, we’re continuing to evaluate,” Otzelberger said. “It appears unlikely, but you never want to rule anything out, so we’ll just continue to do what we can in his best interest and we’ll be prepared to go either way.”
