Tucker is out tonight

Virginia forward Jamil Tucker isn’t going through pregame warm-ups with the rest of his teammates. The sophomore told me has the flu and won’t be playing tonight versus Syracuse.
So far this season, Tucker hasn’t contributed as much as some people expected him to. He’s averaging just 5 points and 2 rebounds in 12.4 minutes per game.
His best game of the season was a 12-point, four-rebound performance in the upset win over Arizona on Nov. 17.
