EAST LANSING — Michigan State basketball’s ball protection continues to play Jekyll and Hyde.
For the third time this season, the Spartans committed more than 20 turnovers. For the second time, they survived them and earned a victory — their 70-50 NCAA tournament win over Minnesota on Saturday that pushed the No. 2 seed into the East Region semifinals.
Continuing to give the ball away during one-and-done time could spell the end of MSU’s season.
