UConn's Kia Nurse to be game-time decision

There's nothing new to report on Kia Nurse's tender right ankle.

Nurse was clearly hobbled a season-low 18 minutes in Monday's win over South Carolina. Nurse was able to play in the second half, although for only a total of 5:52.

Nurse is considered to be a game-time decision which means her status may not be determined until the shootaround the day of the game as the UConn medical staff will need to determine whether Nurse will benefit enough from sitting her out to have her miss Saturday's game at Tulane.

Nurse has never missed a game in her time at UConn and certainly if it is left up to her, she will play but we'll have to see how UConn proceeds tomorrow especially with UConn not playing again until Wednesday.

SNY is televising the game so I would expect sideline reporter Justine Ward to be at the shootaround, you can check her Twitter account (@JustineBWard) for an update at or after the shootaround.
