UNT player has surgery

North Texas men's basketball guard Kendrick Davis had surgery to repair his injured left hand after he broke a glass window in a door at the Super Pit following UT-Arlington's controversial 83-81 victory over UNT on Wednesday night.

UNT coach Johnny Jones said Davis did not punch the quarter-inch glass with his fist, but he forcefully tried to open the door and "pushed" his palm through the window. A trail of Davis' blood led to the locker room.

Jones said Davis' injuries are to the palm side of his shooting (left) hand, and no bone breaks are evident.

Unfortunately, this blurb doesn't tell us much. DMN calls it "stiches"

UNT guard gets stitches in shooting hand

DENTON – Senior guard Kendrick Davis underwent a procedure on his shooting hand Thursday after breaking a window in a hallway door of the Super Pit after a loss to UT-Arlington on Wednesday.

Coach Johnny Jones said Davis tried to push the door open with an open hand while running back to the locker room and accidentally broke the glass. Davis went to the hospital and had stitches after the game to close cuts.

His status for the next few weeks has yet to be determined.

But as a guard he spends alot of time dribbling.  To lose his main hand especially where the ball hits the hand is rough.

I hope he doesn't dribble or shoot with his palm.

If Johnny Quinn can play reciever with a cast on, I don't see why KD can't play with a bandage on.. Sure he won't be 100%, but cut down his minutes slightly, so when his hand is 100% he won't have to shake off any rust

I cut the hell outta my hand bartending during intramurals last year and tried to play...

I am telling you now...he wont be playing...

Johnny playing with a broken hand covered in a HARD cast... thats reasonable...KD playing wiht the potential of blowing the stitches out with the slightest shot to the hand....yeah not taking that risk...

quote me!

My wife (a physycal therapist) told me that it would have been better if he actually broke a bone instead of tearing the flexor. Basically, his chances of playing well again are not very good for a long time.

A bone fracture can be overcome in a few weeks, the flexor is going to take months.

      🙄 like I have stated before DC under a lame duck coach is not a highly desired job for coaches with options.

      That is very subjective. Boise State or UNLV probably will get the G5 spot in the playoff over a one loss Army team. Louisville, SMU, Houston, Rutgers and Cincinnati left conference for greener pastures. So I don’t know who anointed the AAC as 5th, but the playoff committee isn’t listening to them. Army, a team brand new to the conference that came into the conference and dominated. They were independent juggernauts last year at 6-6 🙄. AAC is viewed as better than the MAC, CUSA and Sun Belt. But we certainly won’t be viewed as better than the reconstructed PAC 12 and right now it doesn’t look like we are viewed better than the current MWC.

      Don't if y'all know this or not.....but the last two years we've had Texas high school football games played in Louisiana. Both years the games have been at Turpin Stadium in Natchitoches. As a matter of fact, this year they hosted two games on the same day. (Daingerfield versus Newton, and Texarkana versus Port Neches Grove). Both games were last Friday.

      The exact same thing was probably thought by other fan bases about Eric, Seth, Dan, and any other head coach we’ve hired here.
