Michigan State basketball guard Rocket Watts was pulled from game against Iowa on Saturday after halftime "for health and safety precautions," an MSU spokesperson told the media during the second half of the game.
Watts scored three points on 1-for-5 shooting in the first half on Saturday.
Teammate Thomas Kithier was pulled out of the Feb. 6 game at home against Nebraska for similar reasons. Kithier was tested for COVID-19, both with the rapid test and the antigen test, several times in the days following and was negative each time.
