Florida basketball star Keyontae Johnson continues to make “encouraging progress” since his frightening collapse last Saturday at Florida State, Gators athletics director Scott Stricklin announced Thursday.
UF has decided to postpone three upcoming games while Johnson recovers and continues to undergo extensive tests at UF Health to determine cause the events that ended with the 21-year-old in a medically induced coma in a Tallahassee hospital.
Coach Mike White’s team will not host games scheduled against Florida Atlantic Saturday, Florida A&M Sunday and James Madison next Tuesday.
“This has been an emotionally taxing time for Keyontae’s family, friends and teammates,” Stricklin said in a statement posted on the team’s Twitter account.
