UNC's Kendall Marshall fractures wrist
Quote:
Sophomore ballhandler Kendall Marshall has a fractured scaphoid bone in his right wrist, the team announced after the victory, and his status for Friday's Round of 16 game in St. Louis in unknown.
Marshall, eyes red in the locker room, said the injury occurred with 10:56 left, when he was fouled hard by Creighton's Ethan Wragge.
The second-team All-ACC selection kept playing, hitting the first of two free throws after a timeout. He came out of the game, but then re-entered it, playing about eight more minutes until he left for good.

I'd feel a lot better about having 10 (11 if Kansas wins) Sweet 16 teams if I didn't have UNC over Duke in the final...
