It’s not clear if Isaiah Briscoe will suit up for Kentucky against UT-Martin tomorrow night or not.
Briscoe missed the Cleveland State game earlier this week with a back injury.
Here’s what John Calipari said about Briscoe’s status heading into tomorrow:
Sophomore guard Isaiah Briscoe, who was averaging 18 points per game through the first four games, sat out Wednesday’s win over Cleveland State because of a lower back injury. His status for Friday remains unclear.
“He tried to practice, but you can’t be 75 percent with the way we’re playing,” coach John Calipari said Wednesday. “So he took today and tomorrow off and we’ll see if he can go Friday. If he can’t go Friday, we’ll just hope he’s ready for Monday.”
Briscoe was hurt during Sunday’s win over Duquesne when he was fouled hard on a drive to the basket. He landed awkwardly on his tailbone and managed to play only three minutes after intermission. Briscoe sat on an ice pack the second half.
