Breaking news on this Thursday night: Kansas has suspended forward Carlton Bragg, Jr. indefinitely.
The school announced that the 6-foot-10 sophomore will not play Saturday when the second-ranked Jayhawks visit Rupp Arena to play No. 4 Kentucky in the SEC/Big 12 Challenge.
Head coach Bill Self said the suspension is not related to the ongoing investigation into a reported rape of a 16-year-old girl at McCarthy Hall, which houses the Kansas men’s basketball players among other students.
Bragg has played in 19 of Kansas’ 20 games this season, starting five.
