Big 12 tournament blog from Sprint Center: Kansas vs. Oklahoma State
-
The No. 1 seed in the Big 12 tournament for the 10th consecutive year, Kansas opens up this season’s postseason trip to Kansas City, Mo., against an Oklahoma State team that swept the Jayhawks in the regular season. KU (24-7) will have to try and get past the Cowboys (18-13) without starting center Udoka Azubuike, who is out this weekend due to a sprained medial collateral ligament in his left knee.

K-State vs TCU currently in OT at Sprint Center. KU-Okla. St. will tip about 30 minutes after this one ends. Welcome to March.

For a grade 1 MCL injury there may be mild tenderness on the inside of the knee over the ligament. There is usually no swelling. When the knee is bent to 30 degrees and an outward force applied to the lower leg to stress the medial ligament, pain is felt but there is no joint laxity. A grade one tear consists of fewer than 10% of the fibres being torn.
Ice/ cold therapy as initial first aid. Rest with no training.Wear compression bandage or knee brace. Electrotherapy. Taping. Exercises. Grade 1 is three to six weeks for full recovery. -

The miss by Robinson shows the impact of pressure. You can be a 90% shooter but at crunch it's a new game. Re: Derrick Rose.
