Little Rock's Robinson out for the season
MBB: The Trojans will play at Murray State on November 18th
Little Rock senior guard KK Robinson, the Blue Ribbon College Basketball Yearbook’s pick to be the Ohio Valley Conference Player of the Year, will miss the year after suffering an undisclosed season-ending injury. Little Rock Head Coach Darrell Walker confirmed the news at his program’s media day.
Murray State will host Little Rock at the CFSB Center on Tuesday, November 18th.
Robinson scored 16 points and grabbed 14 rebounds in Little Rock’s 80-66 win over the Racers in December of 2023. This year’s game in Murray is the back-end of a home-and-home series between the two schools.
After earning First Team All-OVC honors during the 2023-24 season, Robinson was named the OVC Preseason Player of the Year for 2024-25. Before playing a game last season, Robinson tore his ACL in October, forcing him to miss the entire year. Now, for the second-straight year, Robinson’s season is over before it begins.
Prior to news of the injury, the Blue Ribbon Yearbook picked Little Rock to win the Ohio Valley Conference this year. According to BartTorvik.com, Little Rock is the highest-rated of Murray State’s five non-conference home games this season.
