FWIW, and I don't know if it has already been said, but I was watching Bagley very closely every time they showed him on TV and saw him say more than once, "I'm good". To teammates and MSU players. Obviously he will be monitored and likely tested more when they get back to campus. Just thought I would pass it along to anyone who didn't catch it.
Bagley's Eye

Thanks for that! I thought I saw on twitter that K said during his postgame interview that they kept bagley out as a precaution
Anyone been on thr to see what guru gary- 7 is saying about Bags eye. Probably the most reliable source to find out what the real story is. OFC
Scary injury’s and he should be fine...thank god it’s not a knee or foot or something like that..
Also I couldn’t help but think...with the way our injuries go..that it would end up being some kind of catastrophic eye injury...thank god it’s not...

They would have had him in the ER if was a Scheyer similarity, imo.
Yeah just a scratch. If more he wouldn't of been out without it at least covered
I heard he lost his eyeball. Did anyone else hear that? Going in tomorrow for a glass replica....
That's how some in the game thread were making it seem
Actually, I heard they're just going to fill the socket with one of those cloned Kyrie toes they keep in the back.
Gary-7 has made an official statement. "Bagley may never see again. However in an effort to up his win total K is forcing him to play out the rest of the season with one good eye. The things K does to these recruits is terrible."
I heard on twitter he was going to wear and eye patch the rest of the season and talk like Jack Sparrow! 
Get well quick young man, can't wait to see you on the floor soon.

We all know this stems from Grayson tripping somebody.
Scheyer's injury was a detached retina...not a scratch. It was encouraging that he was on the bench by the second half. BTW -- Duke Eye Center is _World-class_. Pretty sure he has an appointment there as soon as he gets back in Durham.
Class act by Coach K. I can imagine that it was tempting to put Marvin back out there after MSU made a couple big runs and took the lead, but think in the long term that it will be good for Wendell and Jav to know that they can hold down the front court along with Bolden and Vrank against one of the other best front courts in college ball.
If Marvin would have played for UNC, Roy would have freaked out when MSU tied the game back up toward the end of the 1st half, gave Marvin some Nana pudding during halftime, and put him back on the court to start the 2nd half.
Marvin should probably sit out the rest of the season to rest the eye.
Sorry, just trying to get a head start on some of the idiots at THR.

I thought it was very selfish of Coach K to have him sitting on the bench the second half last night. OFC
Add a few more of the current rotation of cliche excuses and you’re good to go.
He'll pry leave for the NBA cause K is going to recruit over him now...
OAD players are more likely to get hurt eyes. Not four year guys at UNC
All of this detached retina talk is making me light headed lol. Weak stomach. But he should be fine. Eyes tend to heal fast
lol. Weak stomach. But he should be fine. Eyes tend to heal fastI heard this was a re-injury from earlier in the week. Something about Grayson beating him in a video game and Bagley getting pissed off and running into a door.
My son has had multiple Corneal Abrasions ranging from minor to severe (seems like he would learn to blink quicker by now).
The worst that he had - where you could actually see material hanging off the surface of the eye - healed in a week or so and he could go to school and everything. They put a medicated contact on the eye. Scratches are just a matter of a few days.

That is always my favorite as if being given a scholarship entitles a player to x amount of playing time. Did the player get a scholarship? Did it cover all of his tuition? Did he get an opportunity to compete for playing time? What is the issue?
Any player that doesn’t want to compete for playing time can leave. Transfers will never bother me, it’s a revelation of character if anything.
Selfish. Kid nearly has his eye taken off is head and Coach K forces him to put the eye back in all by himself and only gets 40 minutes off the court.
