PROVO — BYU freshman Gavin Baxter has been ill all week and didn’t play in the Cougars’ 87-73 win over San Diego Saturday night.

“Gavin is sick. I’m worried about him. He’s been to the doctor twice last week. He’s feeling a little bit better today,” said coach Dave Rose. “But our trainer wanted him to stay home and stay away from the guys still. Usually it’s a 24- or 48- or 72-hour flu. This one, I haven’t seen him since Monday. That’s a long time. Hopefully, he’s feeling better and we’ll get him back in here next week.
