PROVO — BYU senior forward Luke Worthington has started the last four games and he’s coming off a season-high 13-point performance in the Cougars’ 80-74 victory over Santa Clara last Saturday.
But Worthington’s worth to this team goes far beyond his stats. The team captain’s energy and willingness to help his teammates is evident.
Coach Dave Rose said Tuesday that Worthington will remain with the program for the next two seasons in a graduate assistant position as he pursues a master’s degree at BYU.
“The interesting thing with Luke is, he’s always the same guy. He’s a positive, extroverted, excited guy about not only basketball but just about life.
