How Michigan State basketball finally got a Big Ten win vs. Nebraska Cornhuskers

Tom Izzo promised he would put Aaron Henry back into Michigan State basketball’s starting lineup after a one-game trial coming off the bench.

That was expected, and Henry responded with the type of game his coach has sought from his junior captain all season — and then some.

The junior delivered career highs with 27 points and three 3-pointers, tying a career high and flashing a jump shot that had been missing all season, to help jolt the 18th-ranked Spartans to an 84-77 victory over Nebraska on Saturday night at Pinnacle Bank Arena in Lincoln, Nebraska.
