Missouri suspends five players after top scorer injured in altercation
Anderson has said the specifics of his disciplinary policy are an internal matter. But in an interview with the Columbia Daily Tribune, junior guard Matt Lawrence elaborated on the new team rules.
According to Lawrence, the team has an 11 p.m. weeknight curfew and a midnight curfew on weekends. The curfew was initially set at 9 p.m. after Carroll's shooting but was extended at the start of the school year. Team rules also forbid players from visiting certain bars or clubs, he said.
Police said that 20 to 30 people were outside the nightclub when they arrived after the assault, but that none of the observers provided any details about the fight. Hannah told police he was hit by an unknown object by at least one person he could not identify.
The assault happened just hours after the Tigers returned from a 66-62 victory at Colorado, the team's first road win this season. Hannah had a key steal in the final minutes to seal the win.
Hannah leads the Tigers (12-8, 2-3 Big 12) in scoring (14.7 points) and assists (5.1). A junior-college transfer, he also led Missouri in scoring and assists last season.
He was released from University Hospital on Monday after successful surgery to repair his jaw.
