One would never mistake point guard Andrew Nembhard for Michael Jordan.

At the surface, the 6-foot-5 sophomore has very little in common with arguably the greatest basketball player of all time, other than the fact that they are roughly the same height and play the same sport.

But you can also add “played through the flu in a big game” to that list as well.

And while Nembhard’s flu game won’t go down in the annals of basketball history like MJ’s, he helped Florida beat No. 4 Auburn at home for its biggest win of the season.
