Nearly every member of the 2000 national champion MSU basketball team will be honored in a ceremony at the current No. 1 team's game against the Florida Gators on Saturday. Tipoff is scheduled for 6 p.m. at Breslin Center.
The 2000 team finished the season with a 32-7 overall record and defeated Florida in the title game, 89-76, to secure MSU head basketball coach Tom Izzo's first — and as of now — only national championship. Saturday will be an opportunity to do something the MSU program has been looking to do for a while — honor a group of guys Izzo has a great appreciation for.
