USC Upstate reported hours later via social media that Harris was discharged from the hospital and back in Spartanburg.
“We are thankful to report that after evaluation by the fine staff @theprismahealth Richland Hospital, @UpstateMBB Brit Harris has been discharged, is back in Spartanburg and on the road to recovery,” the program tweeted out on Saturday evening. “On behalf of his family and teammates, we appreciate the concern and well wishes expressed for Brit throughout the day.”
