BURN THE HORSE
UALR sophomore forward Will Neighbour will not play tonight as the Trojans take on No. 2 Kentucky in Louisville.Neighbour injured his shoulder in the final seconds of Saturday's victory at Denver. Burn The Horse has learned Neighbour saw a physician in Little Rock today. Doctors advised him not to play tonight in what amounts to a meaningless game for the Trojans.
UALR fans should not take that as either a positive or a negative for Neighbour's return this season. He will have more advanced tests on Wednesday and more will be known at that time.
Neighbour missed all of last season at Daytona State college with a similar injury to the other shoulder. He has already surpassed the NCAA threshold for applying for a medical hardship this season.
UALR resumes Sun Belt Conference play at home on Saturday against Florida Atlantic.
