Sean Miller feared the worst when Kadeem Allen’s right pinky finger popped out of place after it got caught in Parker Jackson-Cartwright’s jersey during Tuesday’s practice.
“I thought he was done for the season,” Miller said.
“His bone popped out of his finger. It’s enough to make you faint.”
Thankfully for the Arizona Wildcats, Allen’s prognosis is far better than Miller originally thought.
Allen, who missed Thursday’s game at Washington State, suffered a dislocation and will be sidelined for five to eight days, meaning Saturday’s game against the Washington Huskies is “on the cusp” of the timetable for his return.
