Cuonzo Martin comments on Michael Porter Jr.'s status after he sat out Vanderbilt game

Last week, doctors cleared star Mizzou freshman Michael Porter Jr. to return to action. However, he sat out against Kentucky on Saturday.

As the Tigers prepared to take on Vanderbilt in Nashville on Tuesday night, Porter again went through warmups with his teammates, but again didn’t play in the game.

After the Mizzou victory, coach Cuonzo Martin commented on MPJ’s status, saying he’s not sure when the talented forward will return to the court:

Cuonzo Martin said Michael Porter Jr. is "looking a lot better," but he adds "as far as playing, who knows, we’ll see.”

The Tigers only have one regular season game remaining, at home against Arkansas on Saturday. That means Mizzou fans have four days to wonder if MPJ will take the court for that contest.

If not, the speculation will shift to the SEC Tournament and beyond, but it seems that, at this point, no one knows if Porter will play again.
