The junior had been an important part of the Bears' reserve unit, providing energy and solid ball-screen defense. He entered Saturday's contest averaging 8.6 points and seven boards over 24 appearances this season.
Tchamwa Tchatchoua leads the Big 12 in defensive rebound percentage (26.5%) and owns the NCAA's 11th-best 2-point field goal percentage (70.4%).
He was a member of Baylor's national championship squad last season.
