Michigan State basketball desperately needed a leader when the poor play began and Aaron Henry has answered the challenge for a third straight game.

The game looked to be over. Duane Washington missed a big 3-pointer near the end of regulation and Aaron Henry soared for the game-clinching rebound with Michigan State up by three.

And then the whistle blew. The refs called a foul on Aaron Henry which was questionable, to say the least, and gave Ohio State two big free throws to make it a one-point game with just under 20 seconds left.
