INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The big basketball matchup between No. 1 Gonzaga and No. 2 Baylor is off. The game was scrapped less than 90 minutes before tip-off Saturday because of two positive COVID-19 tests in the Bulldogs program. The schools say one player and one nonplayer of the Gonzaga travel party tested positive. The unidentified player did not play in Wednesday’s game against West Virginia. Both teams decided to abandon the game after consulting with local health authorities and both team physicians. The game had been set for national television and was expected to draw big ratings. The two coaches are trying to reschedule the game.
