Michigan State eyes Green Bay Grad Transfer, Kerem Kanter

While Spartan Nation’s eyes are firmly fixed on Miles Bridges’ decision to return for a sophomore season or leave for the NBA, Tom Izzo and his coaching staff are still busy on the recruiting trail.

Fans are used to hearing about Brian Bowen, Brandon McCoy, Mark Smith and Blake Harris, but a new name popped onto the radar today. Green Bay graduate transfer Kerem Kanter.

Kerem Kanter told ESPN he will visit Xavier this weekend. Younger brother of Enes averaged 11.3 ppg, 6.3 rpg at Green Bay. Grad transfer.

The name Kanter probably sounds familiar.
