Creighton point guard Maurice Watson Jr. has been suspended from all athletic-related activities for what the university considers to be "alleged actions that are contrary to university policies and core values." The suspension was handed down on Feb. 13. Watson, however, will not be participating in post-game activities on Senior Day on Feb. 28. "I've developed lifelong relationships here," he said. "I'm comfortable here. I've found a home and comfort in Omaha." The senior suffered a season-ending injury in the team's win over Xavier on Jan. 16, which was later revealed to be a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. He was leading the nation in both assists per contest and career assists at the time. "No point guard would've had a better year than me," he said. "I would've continued to prove that all year." No further information has been given at this time.
