Purdue got pretty soundly beaten by the Wolverines yesterday.
Missing Sasha is a big blow against a team that talented, but even with him on the court I'll bet it turns a 17-point loss into a 9-10 point loss. I was fully expecting a loss even before hearing he was out, but I'm sure it made it even worse.
He's a very important part of the offense, sometimes more for what he does off the ball than what he does shooting threes. Hopefully against the weaker competition we'll be facing in the next few games, we can weather his absence.
And it goes without saying that we all hope he's not impacted by COVID symptoms or long-term damage.
