USC Basketball Loses Key Player, Faces Tough Stretch

Southern Californias basketball team, the Trojans, have dismissed guard Chad Baker-Mazara, their second-leading scorer this season. The twenty-six-year-old graduate student, who started twenty-two games for the Trojans, was injured during a game against Nebraska and was later seen chatting on the baseline instead of joining the team. Despite his experience and MVP honors, the team has not provided details on his departure. With just two regular-season games left and the Big Ten Tournament starting, the Trojans face a challenging stretch without one of their top contributors.
