Illini Injury Updates & Recovery | College Basketball News

Illinois hoops is heating up—but with a few hiccups. Star forward David Mirkovic, sidelined since August with a broken foot, is out of the boot and ramping up rehab, aiming for a November return despite missing early exhibitions. Center Tomislav Ivisic finally made it back to Champaign after a visa delay (just paperwork, no big deal) and now needs to rebuild his conditioning. Meanwhile, Zvonimir “Big Z” Ivisic’s hand injury is still being evaluated but doesn’t sound serious. Despite the bumps, Coach Underwood remains optimistic the team will be healthy and ready when the season tips off.
