Shields OK after scare; Huskers defeat Rutgers
Lincoln Fire and Rescue workers wheel Nebraska forward Shavon Shields (31) off the court after he appeared to land on his head or neck during the second half of the game against Rutgers on Saturday, Feb. 6, 2016, at the Pinnacle Bank Arena.Andrew White knew Shavon Shields was in trouble when Shields bit on Rutgers’ D.J. Foreman’s shot fake underneath the basket, and jumped.
He didn’t realize know how much trouble, though.
Shields, a senior forward on the Nebraska men’s basketball team, flipped over Foreman’s back as he was undercut and took a horrendous fall, banging his head and neck on the court with 8:48 remaining in the Huskers’ 87-63 victory Saturday.
