Tramon Mark was released from a local hospital after taking a scary fall near the end of No. 20 Arkansas' game against No. 14 North Carolina, the school said Friday evening.

An MRI revealed no significant injury to Mark's back after he was wheeled off the floor on a stretcher with 1:12 left to play in the third-place game of the Battle 4 Atlantis in Paradise Island, Bahamas. The school said Mark will be able to travel home Saturday morning.

Mark was driving to the basket and landed hard on his back after passing the ball to the corner.

A transfer from Houston, Mark poured in a career-high 34 points for the Razorbacks in their 87-72 loss to the Tar Heels.

Mark made 13 of 17 shots from the field, which included 4 of 6 from 3-point range.
