“Hutson is out of the hospital, back with the team, and is \u2018day-to-day,\u2019” Team USA said.<\/p>\n

“We\u2019re thankful for the concern of everyone and the care that he received.”<\/p>\n

Team USA head coach<\/a> Bob Motzko opened up about the situation after the game.<\/p>\n

“It was a scary situation, no question,” he said, via ESPN<\/a>. “It’s a very close group of guys, and they responded. It knocks you back. The building was silent. But the good news is that he was released and is back with us.”<\/p>\n
