UCLA Basketball: Star Freshman Slowed By Lingering Toe Injury

Sebastian Mack had a career-low performance against USC on Saturday.

UCLA Bruins freshman guard Sebastian Mack was limited to a season-low 19 minutes during his team's demonstrative 65-50 win at USC on Saturday.

He was seen agonizing in pain, with his jersey over his face on the bench at one point during the game. Trainers were treating him for some type of lower-body injury.

Head coach Mick Cronin confirmed a toe injury in his post-game press conference.

Mack practiced on Tuesday but was a limited participant, as Ben Bolch of The Los Angeles Times details:

Through 20 games thus far this season, Mack leads the Bruins with 13.4 points per game. Saturday unfortunately represented a season-low scoring performance.

He scored four points, had one rebound, and was 1-for-6 from the field. 

Mack's status for Thursday night's game against Oregon State is unknown as of Thursday morning. 

Tip-off between the Bruins and the Beavers is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. on the Pac-12 Network.
