Femi Odukale - Avoids serious injuryOdukale (ribs) avoided major injury after colliding with a metal railing during Monday's loss against Ohio State, Andy Greder of the Twin Cities Pioneer Press reports.ImpactOdukale bruised his ribs after falling off of the Golden Gophers' raised court and colliding with a metal railing, and he will "have a high level of discomfort going into Wisconsin on Friday". The 6-foot-6 senior has appeared in all 15 games this season (13 starts), averaging 5.1 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.2 blocks on 26.4 minutes per game. The team's language around Odukale's status for Friday indicates that he is expected to return, which is a good sign for the senior forward.
