Keila Coolbet basketball player Brittain-Watts dismissed over positive doping test

Keila Coolbet basketball team parted ways with American player Ethan Andre Brittain-Watts mid-season. The 24-year-old player tested positive for cannabis use in a doping control.

Keila Coolbet basketball team has lost a player mid-season – American Ethan Andre Brittain-Watts (24) was dismissed from the team after his doping test returned a positive result for cannabis use.

The club decided to end its cooperation with the player, and the departure came unexpectedly in the middle of the season, which represents a significant setback for the team. Brittain-Watts was officially registered with Keila, but due to the violation of doping regulations, he cannot continue competing.

Cannabis is a prohibited substance in sport, and a positive doping test carries automatic consequences for both the player and the club. Keila Coolbet must now find a replacement player for the remainder of the season.
