FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) — Arkansas coach Mike Anderson says forward Marvell Waithe likely will miss Wednesday’s game against Auburn with a calf injury.

Waithe is averaging 6.3 points per game for the Razorbacks (14-5), who defeated then-No. 20 Michigan at home on Saturday. He has developed into one of Arkansas’ most versatile players and is shooting 39 percent (11 of 28) on 3-pointers this season.

The 6-foot-9 Waithe injured his left calf in the opening minutes against the Wolverines after making his second start of the season.

Anderson wasn’t sure how many games Waithe would miss, but the senior did take part in Arkansas’ shootaround before practice on Wednesday afternoon.
