Bucknell forward Donald Brown suffered a broken wrist late in the Bison’s win at Colgate on Tuesday, and is out indefinitely. Brown is averaging a team-leading 11.9 points and 6.6 rebounds per game, while shooting 58.4 percent from the floor. He began the season starting at small forward, but switched to power forward after the loss to Northern Iowa on December 2, and has averaged 13.6 points in the 14 games since. Bucknell has six Patriot League games remaining, plus the ESPNU BracketBusters at Hofstra on February 17, before beginning Patriot League Tournament play.

The release states that a minimum 12 regular season basketball games (men’s and women’s combined) will be broadcast next year, up from 11 this season. The new agreement also guarantees that all eight Patriot League programs will be eligible to participate in ESPN’s BracketBusters event.
