Remember the days when the Michigan State Spartans dressed a frontcourt consisting of a freshman Nick Ward, a pre senior year jump Kenny Goins and whatever minutes a first year Miles Bridges played at the four? Yes, the year where Gavin Schilling and Ben Carter had season-ending injuries and Kyle Ahrens was asked to bulk up as an emergency? Remember? No? Good, I don‘t either.
Ever since that 2016-2017 season head coach Tom Izzo made sure that he wouldn‘t run into any shortage of big men on the roster ever again, just like it shouldn‘t happen at a place like MSU.
