Kentucky Guard Jaxson Robinson to Miss Rest of Season After Wrist Surgery
The Wildcats' second-leading scorer faces a three-month recovery following a torn tendon sheath in his right wrist.
- Jaxson Robinson, Kentucky's second-leading scorer, will undergo surgery on his right wrist and miss the remainder of the 2024-2025 season.
- Robinson suffered the injury during practice earlier in February and attempted to play through it before it worsened during a game against Oklahoma.
- The injury involves a torn sub-sheath to the ECU tendon, causing instability in the wrist, and requires surgical intervention for repair.
- The fifth-year senior transferred to Kentucky to follow Coach Mark Pope and has averaged 13 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 38% shooting from three-point range this season.
- Robinson's absence adds to Kentucky's injury challenges this season, with other key players like Kerr Kriisa and Lamont Butler also sidelined.
