Badger Basketball: Kobe King Out for Season

A tough 2017 season just got tougher for Badger basketball. Wisconsin freshman shooting guard Kobe King will miss the rest of the season with a left knee injury.

With Badger basketball struggling to find offense losing a scorer like King is a big blow. There really isn’t anyone else on the team who can replicate his promising skill set.

A UW Athletic Department news release made it official on Monday. La Crosse, Wisconsin native Kobe King won’t return during the 2017-2018 season due to a knee injury.

King is averaging 19 minutes per game and shooting 45.
