Kentucky forward Terrence Jones has missed the last two days of practice with a dislocated pinky finger, but that doesn’t mean he won’t play tomorrow against Samford.

“I don’t know yet,” John Calipari said. “We’ll see. I don’t expect him to start if he doesn’t practice today, but I don’t know. … He’s still swollen and black and blue. The doctor said he thought he may be able to practice today, but he looked at it and said, ‘I’d keep him out another day.’”

Wildcat guard Darius Miller has seen the finger and his opinion is as follows: “It’s pretty nasty.”

If it’s that nasty, that black, and that blue, then there’s probably no need for Jones to risk further injuring the finger against 3-6 Samford. The third-ranked, 9-1 Wildcats can probably survive without its sophomore All-America candidate.
