James Andrews overseeing his surgery?
I really hope there is path for him to fully recover and make an NBA career.

That’s awful. Hope the kid has a full recovery. He’s a fantastic player.

Really sucks for him and Auburn. Hopefully yall can fill the gap as much as possible and stay hot.

I have a cool James Andrews story.
When he was practicing in Birmingham, my mom went to him for a knee replacement. The replacement went well, but JA was out when she went for her 2 week post op. JA called her on his cell from his mother’s funeral to apologize for missing the appointment.
I thought that was super impressive.

Hate for this to happen to someone just 3 wins shy of the ultimate goal.
Hope the recovery goes well and best of luck to him.

Okeke has been of fire lately. Really sucks that the tourney ends this way for him. I don't know what Auburn's chances are without him, tbh.

Slim, but I have a hard time doubting these guys.

This was actually considered good news. This is not career ending. Many folks return from this type injury.
Last night there was concern it was much worse.

In today’s press conference, Kentucky forward Keldon Johnson spoke on behalf of the Wildcats, saying their prayers go out to the Auburn forward during this difficult time. “He’s a great player,” he said. “Like I said, we heard he got hurt. That’s unfortunate. Our prayers go out to him and his family. I hope if it’s something serious, he gets a speedy recovery.”
