Gavin Baxter Player Preview

Baxter has had some rotten injury luck the past two years. He injured his shoulder just before the start of Pope’s first season that kept him out until the final 7 games of the year, and he suffered a season-ending injury last season in just the second game.

When healthy, Baxter is a game-changing athlete. He has a 7-foot-3 wingspan that allows him to protect the basket and guard multiple positions on defense.
