Penny Hardaway wanted to start strong at Wichita State on Jan. 24. He didn't get it, and Memphis basketball got bulldozed by the Shockers.

The Memphis men’s basketball team will have an extended stay in Wichita following its 74-59 loss against Wichita State on Saturday. According to Jason Munz of the Memphis Commercial-Appeal, the Tigers will not be able to travel back to Memphis until Monday due to a winter storm that is affecting many states across the country.

The winter storm currently gripping a large swath of the country will keep Memphis basketball team from returning home for a few days.

Kanaan Carlyle’s 17 points led the way for the Owls (11-6, 3-1). Devin Vanterpool notched a 12-point, 11-rebound double-double - adding 7 assists and 3 steals.
