News brief: Men’s basketball player indefinitely suspended from team
A member of the men’s basketball team, sophomore forward Kenny Grant, has been suspended indefinitely for a violation of team rules.
No information has been announced as to why the general liberal arts major has been penalized, but he is forbidden from any team activities, including practices and games, until further notice.
As one of two returning sophomores, Grant had been expected to play a key role on the team this season. Head Coach Kevin Baggett told GoBroncs in early September he expected Grant to play center or “provide significant minutes coming off the bench.”
While he struggled with an injury prior to the start of his rookie year, Grant played in 24 games during the 2014-15 season. Averaging 3.8 minutes played per game, he had a 35.7 field-goal percentage. He averaged 0.4 ppg, 0.8 rebounds per game and 0.2 blocks per game.
