It looks like Michigan State’s basketball team will open the season with a Thanksgiving trip to Orlando.
According to multiple reports, the Spartans will open the season in the Orlando Invitational from Nov. 25-27 before playing Duke in the Champions Classic at the same venue on Dec. 1.
Michigan State has been part of the Orlando Invitational field all along with original dates set for Nov. 26-29. The new start, as reported by Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports, would begin on the first day of the college basketball season and run for three straight days.
