Tigers Face UAB Without Key Player
Memphis basketball fans have another reason to keep their blue and gray flags raised for good vibes. Hasan Abdul Hakim, a promising force for the Tigers, will sit out his third straight game as Memphis prepares to take on UAB, according to Coach Penny Hardaway. The absence cited is due to an undisclosed illness, keeping Tiger Nation watching and waiting for updates on one of their rising stars.
