More on this storyline

Law Murray: Lue on Kennard: “It’s tough when you lose the #1 3-point shooting guy in the league. You definitely don’t want to see anyone get injured. But it’s been our mentality all year. A guy goes down, other guys got to step up. … No excuses, got to get ready to play.” -via Twitter @LawMurrayTheNU / April 12, 2022
