Marquette's James Cleared To Play

Marquette senior guard Dominic James has been cleared to play in the team's second-round game against Missouri on Sunday.

James suffered a broken foot on Feb. 25 in what was thought to be his final college game.

"I don't know how much he'll be able to contribute," Marquette coach Buzz Williams said. "The thing that I'm excited about is we're going to give him an opportunity to close out his career in the best way he possibly could.

"And I think the recovery has been due in large part to his work, but also because of the wisdom of Ernest [Eugene] and Dr. [Darrin] Maccoux," Williams said of the team's athletic trainer and physician.
