He's one of the few Wildcats who poses a threat both from the perimeter and penetrating off the dribble. He's also one of the team's best defenders. And, if necessary, he can play point guard, where the Cats are woefully inexperienced. Saturday, they lost him. With just under three minutes left in the game, Groves hobbled over to the K-State bench clutching his left hamstring.
Torn hamstrings are bad, period.
They're really bad if you play basketball, especially the way Groves does. No one on Saturday knew how bad Groves' injury was, although based on what team doctors told him, Asbury said his senior guard could be out a week or a month. And it could very well be longer than that. We just have to go on and hope it's not too bad. We're finally starting to gel.
