Illinois center Tomislav Ivisic fails against Maryland basketball

Ivisic was listed in the Big Ten availability report, which was published on Thursday evening, as “Out” for Illinois. This will be the first game that Ivisic misses for the Illini this season.

In the availability report for the game on Thursday, Illinois also listed the starting striker Tre White and the replacement player wants Riley as “questionable”. In Illinois’s radio broadcast, it was said that Ivisic, White and Riley had to struggle with an illness.

The availability report did not show why Ivisic turns out against Maryland, but Illinois head coach Brad Underwood said on Sunday that Ivisic suffered from the 80: 78 defeat of Illinois against Michigan State.

“Tommy feels terrible and I mean terrible,” said Underwood on Sunday about Ivisic. “For him with sore throat, it was only a hard fight to recover. He has had to take antibiotics for three days. He just feels gross. “

Ivisic played 28 minutes on Sunday with 13 points, five assists and four rebounds against Michigan State.

“He was dead,” said Underwood on Sunday about Ivisic when he talked about limiting his minutes against Michigan State. “He couldn’t breathe. His almonds look like – they are disgusting – and that’s why he couldn’t breathe. He woke up this morning and said, ‘I can’t breathe.’ ”

Illinois, in the Associated Press survey in 17th place, goes into the match with 13: 5 and 5: 3 in the big ten. The Maryland Terps go to the competition with a total of 14: 5 and 4: 4 in the big ten. Kevin Willard is the basketball head coach of Maryland Terps.
