The 2018-19 Michigan State Spartans athletics year may be one of the most injury plagued school years imaginable. Fresh off of a football season that saw one star after another miss time due to injury, the basketball team is hoping to reach the post-season without another big name getting hurt.
The Spartans will play Michigan this Saturday with the Big Ten championship on the line. But they will take the floor again without star forward Nick Ward. Wednesday, Izzo told the media that Ward had a “million-to-one” chance of playing against Michigan. This will be Ward’s fifth game missed since injuring his left hand against Ohio State.
