LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) Louisville forward/center Malik Williams will miss at least 12 weeks after reinjuring his right foot, an injury that sidelined him at the start of last season.
Williams has a new fracture of the same bone that required the insertion of a screw and caused the 6-foot-11, 245-pound senior and co-captain to miss eight weeks, including the first four games. He will have surgery next week.
”I feel for Malik,” Cardinals coach Chris Mack said.
Williams was runner-up as Atlantic Coast Conference Sixth Man of the Year after averaging 8.5 points and 6.1 rebounds as a junior.
Louisville begins the season Nov. 25 against Southern Illinois in the Wade Houston Tipoff Classic.
