Deandre Burnett, Miami transfer to Ole Miss, the SEC’s third-leading conference scorer at 19 points per game, suffered a high ankle sprain against Georgia on Wednesday night. As is the case with these types of injuries, Burnette’s timetable to return ain’t altogether clear. Hoo boy.
Other than Burnett and Spanish savior Sebastian Saiz, Ole Miss’ offensive producers have appeared few and far between. Terence Davis is a terror at the rim when he can get there, which isn’t that often. Rasheed Brooks — this year’s supposed breakthrough guy — has been streaky at best; check that, let’s call it underwhelming — shoot better, Brooks.
