Kentucky's Alex Poythress out two weeks after reported knee procedure

Kentucky forward Alex Poythress will miss two weeks because of an undisclosed injury to his right knee, coach John Calipari told reporters Tuesday after an 82-48 rout of Georgia.

Kentucky Sports Radio reported earlier Tuesday that Poythress underwent a "minor procedure" on the knee, but Calipari refused to elaborate when asked about the nature of the injury, saying, “I don’t think there’s any reason to talk about it."
