FRESNO, Calif. — Fresno State has suspended two of its top men's basketball scorers and removed a third player from the team amid reports that the school is the subject of gambling investigations. The school said in a statement Saturday that Jalen Weaver and Zaon Collins "are being withheld from competition as the university reviews an eligibility matter." It added that there will be no further comment at this time. ESPN.com reported that Mykell Robinson is no longer on the team. The Fresno Bee initially reported on an internal investigation at Fresno State. School officials then contacted the NCAA, which is also conducting an investigation.
