When Julius Marble committed to Michigan State, no one knew just how valuable he would one day become.
That day may not yet be upon us, but with the departure of Nick Ward, there’s been something missing in the post and he’s the type of player who could excel with his back to the basket.
After another solid game in the final minutes against Eastern Michigan with nine points and five rebounds in nine minutes, it’s clear that he could be just what the team needs down low.
Sure, the Spartans have Xavier Tillman, but he does more stretching the floor and making crisp passes out of the post than scoring with his back to the basket.
