Arkansas guard Chris Lykes’ body took a bit of a beating in Saturday’s loss to Texas A&M, but coach Eric Musselman said Lykes should be available Wednesday against Missouri.
Lykes, a transfer from Miami (FL), came down hard after a collecting a rebound in the waning seconds against the Aggies. His legs split apart when he hit the ground and he appeared to injure his adductor or groin, even staying on the court for several seconds in the aftermath.
“He’s been doing rehab,” Musselman said. “He should be fine. I’ll hold him out of practice (Monday), but he should be fine for Wednesday.”
Lykes played 10 minutes against Texas A&M and scored just one point. He did the same minutes-wise and points-wise against Vanderbilt in the game before. They were his two lowest outputs of the season in minutes and points both as he had scored in double figures in five of his previous six games before that.
Arkansas (10-4, 0-3 in SEC) tips against Missouri at 8 p.m. on Wednesday. The 0-3 start is Arkansas’ worst in more than a decade.
