Joey Hauser has been everything Michigan State basketball wanted from a stretch-four and more in his first season on the active roster.

Joey Hauser’s breakout performance on Dec. 6 was a manifestation of what Spartan fans envisioned when the smooth-shooting big man announced his decision to transfer to Michigan State from Marquette back in the spring of 2019.

MSU applied to grant him immediate eligibility for the 2019-20 season yet that request was denied by the NCAA.
