East Lansing — There aren’t many easy nights in the Big Ten this season, and Tuesday night at the Breslin Center was a perfect example.
Thanks to another big game from Cassius Winston and some outstanding defense on Carsen Edwards, the Big Ten’s leading scorer, No. 6 Michigan State remained perfect in Big Ten play by knocking off Purdue, 77-59, for its ninth straight victory.
Winston finished with 23 points, six rebounds and five assists for the Spartans (14-2, 5-0 Big Ten) while Nick Ward added 16 points and nine rebounds and Xavier Tillman chipped in 11 points.
