Adel, Mathiang Out for Cards' Game at Virginia
LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- University of Louisville forward Deng Adel and center Mangok Mathiang will miss the Cardinals' game at Virginia tonight after violating their team's Saturday night curfew.
"After we returned to Louisville, I boarded the team bus and told them how proud I was of them, but the most important thing now is to get their rest as we had an early morning practice and had to travel," said UofL Coach Rick Pitino. "For some reason, Mangok and Deng chose to break curfew and were out very late. The players were fully aware that we have zero tolerance in this area. This is an extremely big game for our basketball team and it would be an understatement to say that I am extremely disappointed in both young men. That being said, we will move forward and put forth a great effort with a depleted team. Mangok is no longer a captain of our team. Donovan Mitchell has now been inserted in that role."
