Cal starter Omondi Amoke suspended for Louisville game

Stay connected for news and updates

Starting forward Omondi Amoke has been suspended indefinitely by California head coach Mike Montgomery due to an undisclosed violation of team rules. 

The 6-7 sophomore averages 4.8 points and 4.6 rebounds, and moved into a full-time starting role six games ago. He scored 11 points and grabbed 15 rebounds in a November loss to Ohio State.

No word yet on who will replace Amoke in the starting lineup, but the most likely candidates are 7-2 sophomore Max Zhang, who leads the team in blocked shots, or 6-7 junior Markhuri Sanders-Frison, who has been bothered by a bad back for the past month. Montgomery could also choose to go small and insert guard Jorge Gutierrez, the team's best on-ball defender, into the starting five and slide 6-6 Theo Robertson over to the four position. 

Please, please, please let Grown-Up Samardo make the trip to Jacksonville.
