J.J. Frazier woke up this morning feeling ill to the point where he needed to see a doctor at a local hospital’s urgent care clinic.
No one would have known this considering that in 36 minutes of game action, Frazier scored 29 points and helped lead Georgia to an 82-80 victory over LSU.
The campus health center was closed, which caused the usual plan of action to be altered. A trainer took Frazier to the clinic, where he tested negative for the flu while experiencing similar symptoms.
With a 6 p.m. tip-off time, Frazier had at least some time to rest before suiting up.
