The Creighton men’s basketball team returns to the court after an unusual 10-day break in the middle of conference play to take on DePaul on Friday night. Will we also see the return of Grant Gibbs to the basketball court? He’s been out since suffering a knee injury the last time CU and the Blue Demons met.
The CenturyLink Center is sold out for this one. An electric crowd will be in full force with a Lumberjack theme honoring Ethan Wragge. If you don’t have your tickets to be there live, check the Media Menu on how you can follow the 8:07 p.m. central time tip.
