LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) -- Kevin Young, a senior forward for No. 7 Kansas, will be out for about two weeks after breaking a bone in his hand.

Coach Bill Self said Young broke a bone in the middle of his right hand Thursday during practice. Self says Young had surgery Friday and is expected to be shooting baskets without contact in about 10 days and may be back on the court within two weeks.

Young, of Perris, Calif., was a top reserve for the Jayhawks during last year's run to the NCAA title game, averaging 11.4 minutes, 3.4 points and 3 rebounds per game.
