Gordon's foot

UCLA incoming freshman big man Drew Gordon was supposed to play for the under-18 national team, but decided not to. The decision, in talking with several people at UCLA, appears to be made in consultation with Bruins coach Ben Howland.
Gordon was injured, including a broken foot, during his senior season at Archbishop Mitty. Rather than risk another injury or concern his foot has not healed fully, a decision was made for Gordon to skip the tryout and begin taking summer classes at UCLA.
I'm trying to get in touch with Howland about the schedule and a few other things, but have not been able to connect with him to ask him about Gordon.
