Georgetown's leading scorer Freeman has diabetes

Georgetown's leading scorer Austin Freeman has been diagnosed with diabetes, leaving his status uncertain for the team's upcoming games.

Freeman returned to practice Wednesday and Thursday after missing Monday night's loss to West Virginia. He was also limited in Saturday's loss to Notre Dame.

Originally thought to have a stomach virus, Freeman learned he had diabetes when he went to the hospital Monday night.

Coach John Thompson III said Thursday he is "100 percent" certain Freeman will play again this season, but the coach wouldn't say whether the junior guard will return for Saturday's regular-season finale against Cincinnati.
