Jacob Epperson To Miss Time After Suffering Leg Injury

OMAHA, Neb. – Creighton men's basketball center Jacob Epperson will be out for an undetermined amount of time after suffering an injury to his right leg during practice on Thursday, October 24.

A redshirt sophomore from Melbourne, Australia, Epperson has averaged 5.6 points and 2.6 rebounds over two seasons with the Bluejays. He earned a medical hardship in 2018-19 after season-ending back and knee surgery in January ended his season after just nine games.

"Our thoughts and prayers go out to Jacob at a time like this," said Creighton head coach Greg McDermott.
