College basketball is in the air and the Fresno State Bulldogs are ready for the season to get underway. New addition to the team, Joseph Hunter Jr. was named preseason Mountain West freshman of the year.
The Hunter hype will have to be put on a short hold, however, as he recovers from a thumb injury. After the exhibition match against Stanislaus State on Nov. 2, Fresno State Head Coach Justin Hutson confirmed Hunter’s absence was because of his injury.
After the Bulldog’s matchup against University of San Francisco on Nov. 16, Hutson stated that Hunter is expecting surgery on his injured wrist in a few days.
