Michigan State Spartans basketball notes:
The frontcourt is not deep and injuries down the stretch have not helped Tom Izzo and company at all. Drew Naymick started the first seven games of the year before being sidelined with a knee injury. Matt Trannon stepped in nicely before breaking his jaw. Marquise Gray earned nine starts, but is coming off of an ankle injury. Trannon should be back for tourney time, but his effectiveness remains to be seen. The Paul Davis dance partner carousel continues with Delco Rowley and Goran Suton. Rowley fouls as much as he scores and won’t be the answer. Suton, just a freshman, has shown signs of being a long term answer to the problem, but lacks experience at the moment. However, the other four starters are spectacular and, with a proven coach like Tom Izzo on the sidelines, anything can happen with the Spartans.
