Junior guard Mike King, who missed six games because of an injury to his right shoulder, said after Monday’s practice, in which he participated, that he will play Wednesday at St. Joseph’s.

It’s up to him (whether he plays), Coach Tom Penders said. In the last four to five days, he’s really been feeling better.

Penders said he plans to ease King back into the guard rotation and he will not start immediately, as there is still soreness in the shoulder and putting King right back in as a starter would be too much pressure.
