"He's been able to do some workouts," Gregory said before practice Thursday afternoon. "We'll see how he does in practice a little bit. It's more how he recovers from the physical aspects, or workouts, and different things like that. I think the progress has been made this week that we want. We just need to see over the next 72 hours to see how he'll be come Saturday evening." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ummmm. If sellout is defined as the first level, half of the second level scattered around and no one in the third level, it might be close.

There won't be 6k and it wouldn't be great if 2/3 were UC fans. Banks will play, but not start. His minutes will be determine by his play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
