Maryland basketball will be without a player for its matchup with Iowa. The news was reported on by Washington Post’s Emily Giambalvo.

After dealing with a sprained ankle earlier this season, Patrick Emilien was seen at warmups on Sunday wearing sweats and a walking boot on his right foot. Emilien averages 2.5 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 0.1 assists per game for the Terps.

The Terps are coming off of a ranked win over No. 24 Ohio State on Jan. 8. Kevin Willard has his team sitting in a good position halfway through his first year at the helm. It won’t get any easier for them as they travel to Iowa City to face the Hawkeyes, however.

Iowa comes into the game on a three-game win streak beating Indiana, Rutgers, and Michigan all in a row.

Both teams come into the matchup with 11 wins on the year so far. Maryland could miss the experience that the St. Francis (NY) transfer brings.

Tipoff will be at 4:30 p.m. ET, with the game being shown on BTN.
