Just got back from the Colonials’ open practice at the Greensboro Coliseum. This was the first opportunity I had to see Pops Mensah-Bonsu in live drills since he went down with an injury against LaSalle a month ago. Pops came out with his leg wrapped in an protective bandage and it seemed to affect his mobility during the early portion of the shootaround. He seemed more comfortable as the practice progressed, making some athletic moves to the basket and playfully dodging coach Hobbs at one point. I’d expect to see Pops play some minutes during the UNC-Wilmington game, but how many is still unclear.
