The Bearcats are missing veteran forward Viktor Lakhin (ankle) for the third consecutive game on Tuesday as they take on West Virginia in the first round of the 2024 Big 12 Tournament. Jon Rothstein confirmed the news.
It's unknown if Lakhin will return at all for the rest of the Big 12 Tournament as UC tries to end the campaign without one of their best rebounders (6.4 per game).
The team is also still missing top three-point shooter CJ Fredrick (hamstring) who hasn't played since the Oklahoma State loss on Feb. 21.
Cincinnati's Viktor Lakhin (ankle) and CJ Fredrick (hamstring) are both not expected to play in today's Big 12 Tournament game game against West Virginia, per Wes Miller.
