Brigham Young Cougars guard TJ Haws (30) pushes up a shot as BYU and Portland State play at the Marriott Center in Provo on Wednesday, Dec. 12, 2018. BYU won 85-66.

PROVO — Apparently there is something that can slow BYU’s Yoeli Childs — an illness.

Childs, who was feeling under the weather Wednesday night, saw his streak of three straight games of scoring 31 points come to an end at the Marriott Center as he finished with a season-low 13 points in 24 minutes of play.

Fortunately for the Cougars, TJ Haws filled that void by pouring in a career-high 30 points in an 85-66 victory over Portland State.
