Yes. His shoulder also checked out and he'll be good to go.

Hopefully we won't need him a lot as it is Texas Tech. Keep him healthy for saturday. I hope to see the bench more Wednesday night. Makes me wonder about Booker? He still in the doghouse or should we expect to see him on the floor? Loves what he brings when he is playing tough D and finishing dunks

I had a feeling he'd be good to go. I'm hoping we can get a good lead going and let Ejim and other starters take it easy in the second half. Maybe we'll have a chance to let Bubu get his feet wet again with little pressure on his shoulders.

Last thing I saw was that it was a flagrant foul with no further specified action (no suspension).

I didn't get to see the game. Anyone have video of the incident?

As much as I would like to play them again, you only play each team twice in the regular season.

Can he play and will he play are 2 different things. I have a feeling he may end up like Booker and he may be a "coaches decision" and ride pine for the whole game.

I agree with you. CFH might at least start someone else and make Melvin sit for a while at the beginning of the game, especially since T-Tech isn't very good.

I could see that.

Anybody have any insight on why Booker was sitting? I mean, what made it a "coaches decision" in the first place?

For those that asked about Ejim on Wed. Shoulder-wise he said he's good to go and there is no suspension from the intentional foul on Sat.

This is possible as is just not starting and then coming off the bench.
