Michigan State basketball signs trio for 2021 recruiting class

Michigan State has high hopes for the upcoming basketball season that begins in roughly two weeks, but on Wednesday, the Spartans and coach Tom Izzo kept an eye toward the future by locking up their three-person recruiting class.

Five-star guard Max Christie as well as four-star guards Jaden Akins and Pierre Brooks II signed their national letters of intent to make up the sixth-ranked class in the nation, according to 247Sports.

Christie, the 6-foot-6 wing from Rolling Meadows, Ill., is the No. 1-ranked player in the country at his position and checks in at No. 15 overall.
