From the Kansas City Star, the latest on the health of Keith Langford, the Jayhawks' second-leading scorer:

`Asked Tuesday whether Langford would play in Friday's game against Bucknell, Self said: "I don't know. He's not going to practice today. We'll try to practice him tomorrow."

Langford hasn't played since suffering a severe left ankle sprain in KU's regular-season finale March 6 at Missouri. After going through individual workouts over the weekend, Langford returned to practice Monday and "tweaked" the injury, Self said.

"Yesterday he didn't do great," Self said Tuesday. "His ankle is just average. He moves pretty good on it, but not great. He tweaked it there at the end, so that kind of set him back for the rest of the day. He's going to get a lot of (treatment) this week."
