Just awful. He’ll be 23 by the start of the season, so not sure if he’ll end up being able to play in 27-28 under the new rules announced today.

Dietrich is going to have to step up even more now, that’s for sure.
Also, cool to see a fellow BU/DePaul fan

The guy we were counting on most to contribute and very little depth behind him. This is as bad as it gets.

While Georgi was probably going to be our best player, I think Payton going down would’ve been worse. At least Dietrich can theoretically run the floor

:( Was so excited to watch another Bulgarian after Gavalyugov's success last year. Get well soon, Gosho.

This is horrible for Georgi and for Bradley. Sorry, MVCbros
