Gainesville, FL – Florida swingman Casey Prather is expected to be sidelined for two weeks after suffering a sprained ankle during this past Saturday's game against LSU.
Prather had a walking boot on his left foot Monday, but Florida coach Billy Donovan doesn't believe it is a serious injury.
"I don't think it's a real severe high ankle sprain," said Donovan on Monday. "Those things can take a long time to heal. Our best guess right now is probably 10-to-14 days. We'll see how he progresses through treatment, but I would say that this week he's definitely out."
Prather is averaging 6.8 points and 3.3 rebounds in 10 games this season, including two starts.
