Redshirt freshman Matt McKinney will miss the
next six to eight weeks with a fractured bone in his left foot,
UCLA announced Tuesday. The 6-foot-8 forward originally sustained
the injury on June 15 in the Say-No Summer League at West Los
Angeles College. He began working out individually in mid-September
but experienced a setback during individual workouts in
late-September. After inconclusive X-rays and MRI, an Oct. 31 CT
Scan revealed the fracture. McKinney is currently in a walking boot
but doesn’t plan to have surgery. A key contributor on the
UCLA men’s volleyball team last season, McKinney redshirted
as a true freshman in basketball. He is expected to compete for
minutes as a back-up this season and should be healthy in time for
the start of the Pac-10 basketball season.
