Harris was chasing after a loose ball during Wednesday night's 103-61 victory over Lamar when he banged heads with Porter. Both players fell to the ground, and Harris was taken from Rupp Arena on a stretcher.
A junior, Harris was taken to UK Chandler Hospital, where he stayed overnight for observation. He was released Thursday afternoon with what the school called a "blow to the back of the head."
The 6-7 Harris, who is averaging 8.7 points in six games this season, has been listed as day-to-day.
Porter missed Thursday's practice due to swelling over his left eye. The junior received 10 stitches to repair a laceration near the eye.
