TCU sophomore point guard Jaylen Fisher should be ready to play by the season opener, although the Horned Frogs are being conservative in his recovery from a meniscus tear, coach Jamie Dixon said.
“We took the long approach, the best approach for him long-term,” Dixon said. “So we think he’ll be ready to go when the season starts.”
Fisher suffered the injury on Aug. 3, two days before TCU left for a five-game Australian tour. He stayed behind to undergo surgery.
“He’s disappointed. He was playing real well, was practicing hard, playing his best basketball, so you certainly don’t want that,” Dixon said.
