Barry Brown scored a game-high 21 points to help lead Kansas State to a 71-59 win over Georgia State Saturday night at Bramlage Coliseum. But seniors Dean Wade and Kamau Stokes left the game with ankle injuries.
Following the game Head Coach Bruce Weber stated he didn’t have a definite answer on the extent of the injury to Wade. “But I do know he didn’t break anything and we’ll do an MRI tomorrow ( Sunday ) and see how severe it is.” Where Stokes was concerned, Weber stated. “Kam stepped on a player’s foot on their bench and he said he could’ve gone back in. It was the same foothe broke last year and he tweaked it and there is some swelling.”
Brown was the key player for Kansas State during a 7-0 run for the Wildcats during the closing minutes. A total of 19 Wildcat turnovers contributed to 25 points in the game for Georgia State.
K-State ( 7-2 ) hosts Southern Mississippi ( 7-3 ) at 7 p.m. Wednesday at Bramlage Coliseum.
