Collegiate career

Entering the University of Illinois during the 2009–10 season, Bertrand suffered a tear in his right Lateral meniscus during individual, preseason workouts. The injury, which required surgery, forced Bertrand to take a Medical redshirt as a true freshman.[3][4] During his redshirt freshman season, Bertrand saw limited time off the bench as the 2010–11 Fighting Illini featured a starting line-up of four seniors and a regular rotation of a former Illinois Mr. Basketball winner and a former McDonald's All-American in Brandon Paul and Jereme Richmond, respectively. In total, Bertrand saw action in 15 games during the 2010-11 season.
