Cincinnati faces Houston in the AAC semifinals | Live updatesThe University of Cincinnati met the Houston Cougars in the semifinals of the AAC men's basketball tournament Saturday.
Marcus Sasser - Game-time call SundaySasser (groin) will be a game-time call for Sunday's game against Memphis, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.
ImpactSasser exited Saturday's win over Cincinnati in the first half, and the coaching staff will wait for him until the last minute to see if he'll feature against the Tigers. His absence would be a massive blow for Houston, as he's the team's leading scorer. He's averaging 17.5 points, 3.3 assists, 2.9 rebounds and 1.8 steals in 31.7 minutes across 32 games this season.
