  freshman players in the nation, is expected to miss out on the rest of the season with a hand injury, sources confirmed to ESPN.Fland had actually currently been dismissed of Wednesday’s game versus Georgia,

  “But we have actually got to make sure we get that thing right.” Fland suffered the injury against Florida on Jan. 11 but began the past 2 games versus LSU and Missouri. He had a hard time in the latter, ending up with a season-low four points on 2-for-13 shooting.It’s the current problem for an Arkansas group that is winless in the SEC and mired in a five-game losing streak.Fland has actually been one of

  the couple of constant intense spots for the Razorbacks, balancing 15.1 points, 5.7 helps and 3.4 rebounds per game while shooting 36.5% from 3-point range. He was a catalyst in the group’s greatest win of the season, posting 20 points and seven assists in a victory over Michigan at Madison Square Garden in December He is No. 32 in ESPN’s NBA draft rankings.Without Fland, Calipari will be forced to lean more on D.J. Wagner and Johnell Davis as playmakers.Fland’s timeline was first reported by CBS Sports.
