The Texas A&M Aggies have acquired a red-hot form of late, allowing them to go on an unbelievable win streak. The Aggies recently tasted victory for the ninth consecutive time in their recent match-up vs the Oklahoma Sooners. However, their win did not come without a cost, as they could not field Wade Taylor IV, who had been ruled out due to a lower-body injury. But what actually happened to the college professional?
Here’s everything you need to know regarding Taylor’s latest ailment.
How did Wade Taylor IV get injured?
Wade Taylor IV sustained an undetermined injury in his knee following his side’s 80-60 win against the Texas Longhorns. Consequently, the player had to sit out the Aggies’ latest victory vs the Sooners.
FOX 44’s Parker Rehm reported on the player’s condition shortly after the conclusion of the Aggies’ clash against the Longhorns. According to his update, Taylor IV suffered from knee tightness during the said match-up, resulting in an injury and his ousting from the Sooners game. “Wade Taylor IV just came into the locker room tunnel next to the postgame press conference room complaining about knee tightness,” Rehm noted. “He said ‘It just feels like jelly.’ He sprinted into the locker room after getting it stretched out.”
When will Wade Taylor IV return to play for Texas A&M Aggies?
The extent of Wade Taylor IV’s injury remains unknown at the time of writing. As such, it is difficult to predict when the point guard will be able to return to full fitness.
Prior to complaining of discomfort in his lower body, Taylor experienced a fruitful outing vs the Longhorns. In 25 minutes of action, the promising athlete recorded 13 points, three rebounds, and three assists. Wade Taylor IV’s performance was yet another testament to his stunning 2024-25 campaign, where he averaged 15.7 points and 4.8 assists per game.
In Taylor’s absence, the Aggies will take on the fifth-seeded Alabama Crimson Tide in their next league fixture.
