Luke Goode revealed a positive update on his foot injury in a recent Twitter post. Goode plays guard for Illinois basketball and will be missing some time with a broken foot.
Goode saw a lot of playing time last season as a freshman. He appeared in 28 games for the Fighting Illini and averaged 2 points and 1.8 rebounds per game. Goode also made 37.2% of his three pointers.
Goode was delighted to let everyone know that the surgery for his injury was a success and that he can’t wait to watch his teammates go up against Quincy in an exhibition on Friday.
“Surgery was a success and I’m on my road to recovery,” said Goode. “Time to watch the guys get busy tonight.”
