LAHAINA, Hawaii (AP) — UConn forward Alex Karaban was taken to a hospital with a head injury after the No. 2 Huskies' 85-67 loss to Dayton in the seventh-place game of the Maui Invitational on Wednesday night.
Karaban’s head hit the floor after he was fouled with about 2 1/2 minutes left. He stayed in the game but was later placed in the concussion protocol and sent to the hospital for further testing.
Karaban got clearance to fly home with the rest of the team shortly before takeoff, a team spokesman said Thursday.
Karaban had made four of his team’s eight 3-pointers and scored 15 of his team-high 21 points in the first half to lead the Huskies (4-3), who lost all three games they played in the tournament.
