ATLANTA (AP) — Georgia State has canceled its men's basketball game Wednesday against Tennessee State because of COVID-19 protocols and injuries.

The Panthers (4-2)

One player was out after testing positive for COVID-19, others were unable to travel because of contract tracing and the roster was further depleted by injuries.

Georgia State announced that Wednesday's home game against Tennessee State was called off “out of an abundance of caution” and wouldn't be rescheduled.
