On Thursday afternoon, Louisville guard Chris Jones posted a picture on Instagram that showed he had been injured and would miss 6 weeks. Since then, UofL has released more information about his injury:
University of Louisville senior guard Chris Jones will be sidelined for three to five weeks while allowing the early stages of a stress fracture to heal in his left leg.
An x-ray taken this morning at the offices of team physician Dr. John Ellis confirmed the stress fracture area in his left tibia. He will have further diagnostic imaging at Jewish Hospital on Friday. He will continue to swim and use other exercises to maintain his conditioning.
