"I haven't spoken with our team doctors yet," Lavin said after the game. "So I don't have any definitive information on D.J. But I know it's a serious knee injury."

-Doesn't sound promising.  I really hope he is ok and can play next week.  DJ deserves to play in the tourney it would be a shame if he can't.  Praying for you DJ

I know he may not be an all time great but I have been watching the team since the late 80's. He is and will always be one of my favorites. Hopefully he gets to play next week.

I just saw that he is headed for an MRI now. I guess we will know more tonight or tomorrow. The injury looked harmless but sometimes those can be the worst injuries. I hope he gets a chance to play in the tourney because no one deserves to play in the NCAAs more than DJ.

DJ's reaction and the waybhe was calling for help gives me the impression that it is a serious injury.  Let's hope for the best.

It's on redmen.com. A team spokesman said that DJ is currently at the Hospital for Special Surgery having an MRI.

I think the team will play ok because we have some depth but this is heart breaking for DJ. He has worked so hard and deserves to play in the NCAAs as much as anyone. I can't believe this is happening to him, so unfortunate.

what a shame for DJ.  putting in 4 years, including 3 very trying ones and then to have his one shot at the NCAA's taken away.  This will also keep him out of Portsmith and a chance to show the NBA guys what he can do.  Wow this is depressing for us but devestating for DJ.

Best of luck for a quick and complete recovery.

This will not effect our seeding.

Idk if it will or it wont but you cant just say flat out it wont. The committee does take injuries into consideration. Georgetown has been losing lately which will hurt but even if they had tread water w/o wright they woulda been seeded lower than they would with a healthy wright in the lineup.
