Anyone know if he’s banged up? Duke got his minutes in second half yesterday and struggled mightily again. He’s a big body, but just not equipped for this level. Would be a big loss if Carter can’t go against Iowa and Garza this week.
 
Also, I hope Myles's back is OK. He was wearing that (heating?) support belt in warmups yesterday.
 
Carter did not participate in the shoot around before the second half, was sitting on the bench, and seemed to have some issues with his legs - I thought maybe excessive cramping? Anyway, watching him at that point I thought it unlikely that he would play in the second half and that's exactly what happened. Did not look serious, hoping anyway.
 
We didn't find out Geo Baker was injured until about two hours before the Nebraska game. I would expect the same thing here if there's anything to know about Carter.
 
Shaq played 2nd half. Maybe Coach simply wanted to try a more physical body on Oturu

also discussed in some threads yesterday. He came out right after the one guy jumped right over him to jam it back cause he didn't box out and then did it again next possession. He was on the bench after that. He got his nice little back down 2 down the other end during this segment so I find it hard to think it injury related. But maybe so.
