Arkansas freshman guard Nick Smith Jr. will be out indefinitely due to "right knee management" according to a press release from the team.

The news was released shortly before tipoff of Wednesday's game between the Razorbacks and UNC-Asheville.

Smith Jr. exited in the second half of Arkansas' most recent game, a 76-57 win over Bradley, and did not return.

The freshman guard also missed six games at the beginning of the season with a right knee injury before making his season debut November 28 against Troy.

Smith Jr. has appeared in five games this season for Arkansas, averaging 12.8 points, 1.8 assists and 1.8 rebounds per game on 38.9% shooting from the field.
