The Mizzou men's basketball team will not host LSU on Saturday, due positive COVID-19 tests within MU's program.

The Southeastern Conference said that Mizzou conducted contact tracing, which resulted in mandatory quarantines.

The program added that it will reevaluate whether or not it can meet Vanderbilt and Texas A&M at a later date.

Saturday's game vs. LSU has been postponed and Mizzou is pausing team activities after a positive test and subsequent contact tracing.
