Kansas sophomore center Udoka Azubuike played 22 minutes in the Jayhawks second-round NCAA Tournament Midwest Regional victory over Seton Hall on Saturday after toiling 3 minutes in Thursdays first-round clash versus Penn.
So how many minutes will the 7-footer, who sprained the medial collateral ligament in his left knee March 6, work Friday in a Sweet 16 contest against Clemson that tips off at 6:07 p.m. at CenturyLink Center in Omaha, Neb.?
I think its strictly conditioning, KU coach Bill Self said Tuesday afternoon on Jim Romes national radio show, meaning the better condition Azubuikes in, the more hell play.
