Miami Basketball Fighting Impact of Numerous Injuries

The Miami basketball team finished the 2018-19 season with just seven able bodies by the end of the year. The Hurricanes began the 2019-20 season with eleven scholarship players. Ten of those were active with center Nysier Brooks sitting out the season after transferring from Cincinnati per NCAA rules.

Nearly a year after a season-ending knee injury, center/forward Deng Gak tore his meniscus the first week of December. To make matters worse, grad transfer forward, Keith Stone (who was also just coming off a year-long knee rehab) injured his left knee the first week of January.
