Michigan State's Jeremy Fears Jr. out of hospital after getting shot

Jeremy Fears Jr., the Michigan State men's basketball freshman who suffered nonlife-threatening injuries in a shooting in his hometown early Saturday, has been discharged from the hospital, his father announced on social media Sunday.

A statement from local police said an 18-year-old man and a 19-year-old woman were at a home with friends in his hometown of Joliet, Illinois, when a male gunman entered the residence and began to shoot. The police statement did not identify Fears by name, but a source told ESPN that it aligns with details of the incident.
