OU basketball: McNeace fights through ankle injury against Kansas

With about 3:30 remaining in the first half of Tuesday's game against Kansas, Oklahoma junior center Jamuni McNeace elevated and — as he's done several times this season — snatched a shot, this one from Marcus Garrett, out of the air for both a block and a rebound all at once.

McNeace played a big role in the first half, with four points and six rebounds in eight minutes. He finished with seven points and played 14 minutes.

It was more than was expected of McNeace after he missed a big chunk of Saturday's loss at Oklahoma State following an ankle injury.
