Hendrix won’t play against Kentucky

Published by jtipton on February 9, 2008 in Injuries.

Alabama’s best player, forward Richard Hendrix, will not play against Kentucky on Saturday.

Becky Hoft, a spokeswoman for the program, said Hendrix had the flu. Hendrix made the trip, but the Alabama team left him at the team hotel.

Hendrix leads the Southeastern Conference in double-doubles this season with 12. He leads the Tide in scoring and rebounding.

The illness robs the game of its marquee matchup: Hendrix against UK freshman big man Patrick Patterson.
