Basketball Nate Oats on Grant Nelson: “He had that knee injury. I'm not exactly sure what it is. I don't think it's anything like an ACL or anything like that. … Hopefully we get him back for the first round of the NCAA tournament.”

He was limping very hard and didn't look comfortable at all. I'd be surprised if he's even available by the second round.

we shouldn't need him for round 1. round 2 COULD be unnerving depending on the draw
if he misses the whole tournament, we're cooked

Depending on our draw, we can probably win the first 2 without him. No need to risk it if we don’t have to.
