We have new information on some health concerns about of the wildcat basketball players. Patrick Patterson is the McDonald's All American out of Huntington.

Sources tell us he did not practice Monday and an Internet report on Central Kentucky Sports says that Patterson was spotted at UK Hospital with coach Billy Gillispie.

UK officials tell us Patterson is suffering from a upper respiratory infection and is undergoing treatment for that.

Coming out of Huntington High, the 6'9" Patterson was rated the number two power forward in the nation by rivals.com and he's a key part of Billy Gillispie's plans for this season and the future.
