After a disappointing stretch to end the 2020 calendar year, Aaron Henry stepped up to post career-highs for Michigan State basketball against Nebraska.
This is the Aaron Henry that was on the radar of NBA teams with stretches of spectacular play as a sophomore and excellent all-around performances starting in late November through mid-December of this current season.
The junior small forward scored a career-high 27 points for the Spartans when they desperately needed a spark to snap a three-game losing streak on the road at Nebraska.
