Georgia basketball will be without one of its top players for its home finale Tuesday night against Ole Miss.

Senior guard Jabri Abdur-Rahim was on the bench less than an hour before tipoff with a boot on his left foot. Georgia has not provided details about the nature of the Virginia transfer’s injury.

Abdur-Rahim did postgame interviews after a 70-56 loss to Texas A&M Saturday night and no injury was apparent during that game.

He has started 27 games this season for the Bulldogs.

Georgia plays at No. 14 Auburn Saturday and then will have at least one game in the SEC tournament next week in Nashville.
