MSU basketball sees FAU as first step to achieving season goals

There was a sense of urgency at practice for MSU Basketball Wednesday evening, something head coach Tom Izzo said his team was lacking against Ferris State. Only two days out from starting the season against Florida Atlantic, the Spartans paid attention to all the details, trying to perfect an already impressive style of play.

Fast paced, and mobile the Spartans will have to avoid a lackadaisical effort if they’re to avoid an upset.

“We gotta play defense I think that’s key,” sophomore guard Lourawls “Tum Tum” Nairn Jr, said about what it will take to win on Friday night.
