UVA guard Justin Anderson will miss four to six weeks after going down with a fractured finger on his left hand in the first half of the third-ranked Cavs’ 52-47 win over #9 Louisville Saturday night.

Head coach Tony Bennett announced late Saturday that Anderson will undergo surgery on Sunday.

Anderson was injured late in the first half and did not play in the second half of the game, finishing with two points on 1-of-9 shooting from the field in 16 minutes.
