Michigan State-Virginia basketball game postponed due to COVID issues affecting Cavaliers

No. 4 Michigan State's game against No. 18 Virginia in the ACC/Big Ten Challenge on Wednesday has been postponed due to COVID-19 issues within the Cavaliers' program, the University of Virginia announced Tuesday night.

The game at John Paul Jones Arena in Charlottesville, Virginia, was to feature the first meeting in a college basketball game between MSU junior forward Joey Hauser and older brother Sam, who is a senior forward on the Cavaliers' team.

They were teammates Stevens Point Area Senior High School and at Marquette before the pair transferred after the 2018-19 season with Joey moving onto Michigan State and Sam going to Virginia.
