Kashif Pratt appears to be AWOL from the Iona basketball team.
Pratt, the 6-foot-4 sophomore from Rice High who transferred from Seton Hall, did not play in Sunday’s win over Fairfield and may not return to the team, according to Sean Brennan of the Daily News.
A source told Brennan that “it doesn’t look good” for his return to the team. “I don’t know what it is,” the source said.
Word on Pratt, who is averaging 6.6 points and 2 rebounds per game, is expected before Friday’s game with Canisius.
