COLUMBIA, S.C. -- South Carolina coach Frank Martin said injured guard PJ Dozier could return for the 23rd-ranked Gamecocks against Auburn on Tuesday night.
Dozier missed South Carolina's 85-69 loss at No. 4 Kentucky this past Saturday with back spasms. Martin said Monday that Dozier was past the pain and walking normally. The 6-foot-6 sophomore was expected to participate in practice Monday to get ready for Auburn.
The Gamecocks (15-4, 5-1 Southeastern Conference) face the Tigers (13-6, 3-4).
