MBB: Game Against Little Rock Canceled Due to COVID-19 Concerns

[NewsCopy]

Following a thrilling 83-77 overtime victory against Arkansas State on Thursday night, Louisiana Men's Basketball returns to the Cajundome at 7 p.m. Saturday to face Little Rock. The game will be available to be streamed live on ESPN+.

Without leading scorer Jordan Brown, Louisiana received a late offensive push from junior Trajan Wesley to force the extra period and Theo Akwuba scored a pair of baskets in overtime to seal the victory.

Akwuba picked up right where he left off last week and totaled 16 points and 15 rebounds in the win.

The Ragin' Cajuns are one of just two teams in the country with two 16+ point and 15+ rebound performers this year as Brown accomplished the feat on Dec. 8 against McNeese.

The contest will tipoff at 7 p.m. Saturday is available to be streamed live on ESPN+

Little Rock down to six players

They decided not to try and play with 6. League makes you play with 7.

I am thankful for the "bonus basketball" we got that night!

Know four households with Covid. Their “jab compliance” ranges from 0 to 100%. I’ll stop right there.

[IberiaCajun]

One less W for the team.

Maybe stAte can get the virus when it’s our return trip and we get to punish LilRock.
