East Lansing — For a brief moment on Sunday afternoon, it looked like Joshua Langford’s Michigan State career was going to have a brutal finish.
With the Spartans leading Michigan by five with just less than two minutes to play, Langford turned the ball over then committed a foul at the other end of the court, leading to a three-point play from Michigan’s Hunter Dickinson, trimming Michigan State’s lead to two with the clock ticking.
Michigan State’s potential huge upset over the No. 2 team in the nation was slipping away.
That’s when Langford found himself open on the wing.
