Plane appearing to carry Auburn’s men’s basketball team diverted due to in-flight altercation: report

Auburn and Houston are set to play a basketball game, but Auburn’s team had a bit of drama before takeoff. Reports say players were fighting on the team’s plane, causing the pilot to turn around and land back in Auburn. The incident was not confirmed by the university, but it seems like things got heated between players. The flight eventually made it to Houston, where the two top-ranked teams will face off. Both teams have had success in the past, with Auburn being knocked out early in last year’s tournament and Houston reaching the Sweet 16. The game between the two programs will surely be an exciting matchup to watch.
