Readable KCStar article on yesterday’s Bill Self camp game, with updates on personnel.
Notable error: Parker Braun is incorrectly mentioned as a walk-on. As previously reported, he has a scholarship.

PERSONNEL POINTS OF INTEREST
• All but Parker Braun and walk-on transfer Christopher Carter are enrolled and in summer school. Braun finishing up class room stuff at UC-Santa Clara. I am assuming the same re: Carter at Cal State-Northridge.
INJURIES
• Michael Jankovich, a senior walk-on guard, is out four to six weeks with a knee injury sustained during a practice Tuesday. Self said it is believed that surgery is not necessary.
• Justin Cross, a junior walk-on guard out of John A. Logan College in Illinois, is one month removed from knee surgery and two months away from returning to contact drills, Self said.
• Charlie McCarthy, a junior walk-on guard who suffered a concussion last season, also did not participate in the scrimmage.
MORRIS MISDEMEANOR COURT CASE
• Arterio Morris returned to his home state of Texas Wednesday but will be back in Lawrence on Thursday. He had a court date Wednesday involving his ongoing case for a misdemeanor assault charge. His date for a trial has been moved to Aug. 2 according to the Associated Press.
Note well: if that date remains unchanged Morris will miss at least part of the Puerto Rico trip (August 1-8 ).
