Syracuse, N.Y. — Brycen Goodine doesn’t remember exactly when it happened, but during an intense four-on-four in Syracuse basketball practice earlier in the week, he knew he suffered a broken nose immediately after a collision with Elijah Hughes that would eventually require surgery.
Goodine said he was guarding Hughes and going up for a rebound when he caught an elbow in the face.
“I was guarding Elijah and he went up for a layup and then we both went for the rebound and he elbowed me in the face. ... We just both collided because we both jumped.
