CHICAGO, Feb. 2 (UPI) -- Imari Sawyer was among three DePaul basketball players suspended by coach Pat Kennedy Saturday for an undisclosed violation of athletic department policy.
Sawyer, a starting guard, was discipined along with starting forward Sam Hoskin and reserve forward Lance Williams.
Kennedy suspended Sawyer and Hoskin indefinitely while Williams will miss one game.
Sawyer leads the team in assists with 5.4 per game but has had a troubled season. He was suspended for an elbowing incident in a game with Notre Dame and missed a Dec. 8 contest with Fairfield.
Hoskin, a junior college transfer, is the Blue Demons' second leading scorer at 11.5 points.
Williams, who averages 10.6 points, will play Sunday at Nevada-Las Vegas and will miss Wednesday night's game at Texas Christian in order to avoid missing class time.
DePaul (8-11) has lost seven of its last eight games.
