On Thursday evening, Ohio State head coach Chris Holtmann told the Columbus Dispatch that senior point guard CJ Walker has a chance to play Saturday when Ohio State travels to Madison to take on the No. 10 Badgers. Walker allegedly injured his hand earlier this season but played through the pain, with an official announcement coming after the Buckeyes’ 77-60 loss to Minnesota on Jan. 3 that he would be out “indefinitely” while he gives his non-shooting hand time to heal.
“We’ll see how he does if he can return to practice and to what degree he feels confident in his hand,” Holtmann said.
