Karter Knox - College Basketball News & Rumors

May be cleared soon Louisville's head coach Pat Kelsey says the team is hoping that Knox (knee) can be cleared within the next two weeks, according to Matt McGavic of Sports Illustrated.

Impact During early-2026, Knox underwent meniscus surgery, which indicates why his 2025-26 season abruptly ended. Nonetheless, Louisville recruited his services, and it looks like they will become available relatively soon. Kelsey's statement indicates that by July, Knox will be 100 percent, putting down previous concerns when he committed to the Cardinals back in April.

Commits to Louisville Knox (knee) has committed to Louisville, according to Brooks Holton of the Courier Journal.

Impact Louisville's team has already stacked its roster with Jackson Shelstad and Flory Bidunga, and adding Knox to the Cardinal frontcourt would aim to complement their newly formed duo. Knox had been a complementary piece for the Razorbacks, especially their 2025-26 team under John Calipari. So as long as Knox's knee heals up, he should be a crucial piece for a Louisville program trying to maintain top-tier relevancy in the ACC.

Seeing his involvement decrease, Knox is elected to seek a new program with two seasons of eligibility remaining. The forward also missed the final 12 games of the season with a knee injury; teams will need to assess his health as well.

Returns to starting five Knox had 16 points (6-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists across 30 minutes during Tuesday's 93-68 victory over Vanderbilt.

Impact Knox popped up on the injury report last week with a hip issue that stemmed from a Jan. 10 contest against Auburn in which he was held scoreless in seven minutes. While the injury didn't force Knox to miss any time, the sophomore did come off the bench in back-to-back games, and he scored exactly eight points in each. Not only did Knox return to the starting five Tuesday, but he put up his highest single-game scoring total since Dec. 13, and his efforts helped the Razorbacks pick up one of their highest-quality wins of the year. It should be enough for Knox to permanently regain his starting spot back from Billy Richmond, though coach John Calipari certainly isn't adverse to the occasional starting lineup shakeup.
