Louisville forward, Chane Behanan, is expected to be sidelined for 7-10 days after spraining his ankle in practice on Monday.
The 7-10 day timetable is important because in 11 days (Saturday, January 19th) the Louisville Cardinals host the #7 Syracuse Orange at the Yum! Center.
The Cardinals play three games in between now and then – at Seton Hall tomorrow night (which he has already been ruled out for), home for South Florida on Saturday, and at Connecticut next Monday.
All of those games fall short of the expected timeframe, but even so – there is no way he is touching the court with the monster match-up with the Orange looming. Ankle injuries can be tricky, but the Cards staff will be doing everything in their power to get Behanan as close to 100% as possible for the highly anticipated match-up; a game (while early in the season) that could decide the Big East regular season title.
Behanan has been a significant contributor for Louisville - averaging 26.4 minutes, 11.4 points and 7.1 rebounds per game.
