By WTOP Staff

FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — TCU has suspended backup guard Charles Hill Jr.

Coach Trent Johnson announced Thursday that Hill, a junior, has been suspended indefinitely from the program for “conduct unbecoming of a TCU men’s basketball player.”

Neither Johnson nor the school elaborated on that explanation.

Hill has appeared in 14 of TCU’s 24 games this season, averaging 2.6 points and 1.2 rebounds while playing about 5.3 minutes per game. His most extensive action came in an overtime loss at West Virginia on Jan 24, when he scored 13 points in 17 minutes.

Hill has averaged 4.2 points in his 52 games for TCU the past three seasons. He has started nine times, none this season.
