Former Michigan State forward Matt Costello signs with Italian team

Matt Costello reached the highest level of professional basketball in 2018, and now the former Michigan State star will head overseas.

Costello has signed a contract with an Italian basketball team, Scandone Avellino, according to a Thursday report from Sportando.

Costello, a Bay City native, finished his Michigan State career in 2016 and spent his first two professional seasons playing primarily in the NBA G-League. Last season, he was on a two-way contract with the San Antonio Spurs, where he spent most of his season helping the team's G-League affiliate, the Austin Spurs, to a league title.
