Omaha, Neb. — As he has during every media session since injuring his left knee before the Big 12 tournament, Kansas center Udoka Azubuike provided another update on his status Saturday, on the eve of the Elite Eight.

The 7-foot sophomore said he couldn’t really tell what percentage his knee was at but admitted it’s still not 100 percent — he is wearing a brace on it after all.

The starting center remembered head coach Bill Self saying Azubuike’s left knee was 100 percent before the Clemson game and laughed. KU’s big man said he aggravated his knee “a little bit” on a fall during KU’s Sweet 16 win Friday night.

“But it’s not that serious,” he added, the day before the Jayhawks’ regional final showdown against Duke, and freshman bigs Wendell Carter Jr., and Marvin Bagley III.

Azubuike added he hopes his knee will feel close to 100 percent against the Blue Devils.
