CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — North Carolina says junior starting forward Kennedy Meeks is expected to miss at least two weeks due to a bone bruise in his left knee.
The school announced Meeks' injury in a news release Monday, saying Meeks wouldn't play ''for several weeks'' but that it wasn't clear exactly how long he would be out.
Meeks is averaging 12.3 points and 7.4 rebounds while shooting nearly 60 percent through the first nine games.
