Grill remains out of the lineup with a wrist injury suffered in December. Grill last played on Dec. 3 and is expected to return soon, but it won't be on Tuesday night.

“Unfortunately, Caleb suffered an injury to his wrist on his non-shooting hand Sunday after a hard fall,” MU coach Dennis Gates said in a news release.
“I’m happy to report that he had a successful surgery earlier this week and is on track for a five-to-seven-week recovery with a chance of returning sooner. As a key piece of our team this season, Caleb will certainly be missed but we look forward to him making a full recovery and contributing to our success during the second half of the season.”

This season, Grill is averaging 8.4 PPG, 5.8 rebounds, 1.4 assists, and 1.1 steals in nine games.
