Video: Iowa guard Anthony Tucker plays through injured back
Nov. 4, 2009 1:20 pm
Iowa's men's basketball team now has three confirmed cases of injuries during the the team's preseason practices.
Along with freshman guard Cully Payne (who's fine) and junior forward Devon Archie (who's not), sophomore guard Anthony Tucker suffered a sprained muscle in his back. He said it has limited his flexibility and he missed three practices so far. He also said he's trying to play through it.
Here's what he had to say about his injury:
Iowa sophomore forward Aaron Fuller has bulked up about 10-15 pounds since last season and appears ready to be an inside presence for the team this year.
Iowa sophomore guard Matt Gatens is excited about the team's new practice facility that's under construction. But Gatens also kind of laughed about it because as an Iowa City native he's heard plenty about the facility.
