On Friday, BYU basketball guard Dawson Baker joined BYU Sports Nation and provided an update on his injury recovery timeline. After three surgeries, Baker hopes
to be back to 100% in the next month.
"I had two surgeries, actually three," Baker said on his foot recovery."I had two on my foot and one extra one on my knee, just a precautionary thing. It was weird cause I thought the surgery was far enough before the season that it would have been cleared up and everything. Turns out no sign of healing, so there's still a fracture in the foot...but I'm feeling a lot better. Responding a lot better now, doing a lot more.
Baker had a surgery on the same injured foot prior to last season. It never healed like it was supposed to, so Baker was never fully healthy. He played in a few games last year with a sore foot, but he was not near full health. Baker expects to be back to full health over the next few months."Right now it's kind of a day-by-day, week-by-week thing. We're working and rehabbing a lot, getting the strength back... I think in the next month for sure, I should be completely 100%, no limitations and feeling great."When BYU signed Baker out of the transfer portal, he was expected to be an important part of the BYU offense.
