Miami and Drake meet in the always interesting 5-12 game in the first round of the NCAA tournament on Friday, March 17. The game will be live streamed on Sling, which offers half off the first month.

Miami leading rebounder Norchad Omier, nursing a sprained ankle, practiced with the team Thursday in Albany, New York, but his status for the fifth-seeded Hurricanes’ first-round game against Drake is still uncertain.

Omier was injured in the Atlantic Coast Conference semifinals against Duke on Friday night. He participated in a workout that was open to media and fans Thursday that is not the most strenuous test for players. Omier took jumpers and even threw down a dunk.

The 6-foot-7 third-year sophomore averages 13.6 points and a team-high 9.7 rebounds. He was an All-ACC second-team pick by The Associated Press.
