Karnowski hasn't played since Nov. 27 against UConn after suffering what was reported as a bulging disc in his back. On the season, Karnowski was averaging 8.8 points and 5.4 rebounds per game, which might not seem like much. But his defense was stellar, and he was a big piece of why everyone was saying the Zags have one of the best frontcourts in the season.
