CHICAGO - Iowa State forward Joshua Jefferson is out against Tennessee basketball, according to ESPN's Pete Thamel.
The 6-foot-9 Jefferson entered as questionable, but won't suit up for the No. 2 Cyclones (29-7) for their Men's NCAA Tournament Sweet 16 game against the No. 6 Vols (24-11) at the United Center on March 27 (10:25 p.m. ET, TBS).
Jefferson averaged 16.4 points, 7.4 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.6 steals and shot 47.1% from the field.
Jefferson sprained his ankle in the opening minutes of Iowa State's first-round game against Tennessee State. He sat for the remainder of the game and missed the Cyclones' win over Kentucky on March 22. Iowa State didn't need the All-Big 12 forward as it generated 20 Wildcat turnovers in its 19-point victory.
