BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Joshua Langford put his arm around Tom Izzo as they walked back into the Assembly Hall locker room Saturday afternoon.
Just two point guards, two coaches, basking in the glow of Michigan State basketball’s 78-71 comeback win at Indiana.
You read that right. On both accounts.
Let’s start with Langford running the Spartans’ offense for long stretches of their first-half rally, shaking off his four early turnovers to play the final 29:19 without one. And the fifth-year senior spent every bit of that time on the court, scoring 12 of his 14 points in the second half while grabbing six rebounds and handing out five assists.
