FAYETTEVILLE — Forward Adou Thiero will be available for Arkansas’ NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 game against Texas Tech on Thursday in San Francisco, Razorbacks coach John Calipari announced on the Pat McAfee Show on Tuesday.
Thiero has missed the previous eight games due to a knee injury, last appearing in a Feb. 22 victory over Missouri. He averages 15.6 points and 6 rebounds per game.
Calipari said “he was out there” in regard to practice last Friday ahead of 10th-seeded Arkansas’ second-round game victory over second-seeded St. John’s in Providence, R.I., but he was ruled out prior to the game.
