Florida center Micah Handlogten underwent surgery to repair his fractured left leg on Sunday after he suffered the injury in the first few minutes of the team’s SEC championship game against Auburn.
Despite needing recovery time after the two-hour procedure, Handlogten fully intends on traveling to Indianapolis for Florida’s first round NCAA tournament game against the winner of the First Four matchup between Colorado and Boise St. on Friday.
The sophomore’s surgery took place in Nashville, where the SEC tournament was held, so he and his parents will drive four hours to Indianapolis to watch his teammates compete in the NCAA tournament for the first time in three years.
