Shoulder sidelines top scorer

FAYETTEVILLE -- University of Arkansas junior guard Mason Jones missed his first game in two seasons with the Razorbacks when he sat out Saturday's 66-60 victory over Northern Kentucky.

Jones, who is averaging 18.5 points and 5.5 rebounds, didn't play because of a right shoulder injury.

"I'm not sure when he hurt it," Arkansas Coach Eric Musselman said. "Our trainer [Mark O'Neal] told me [Friday] that it was bothering him, and he didn't shoot around [Saturday].

"As far as I'm concerned, he's out indefinitely. And we'll prepare for our game Tuesday not to have him."
