The final score may not be totally indicative of how close this game felt, but Michigan State pulled away late to finish the Wolverines 87-69 in East Lansing.
Michigan was without Isaiah Livers which would have made a difference in the final, but the Spartans held a lead from start to finish. Xavier Tillman continues to play well as he had another double-double and Cassius Winston finished with a career-high 32 points to go along with nine assists.
This team seems to be clicking at the right time, winning seven games in a row and improving to 12-3 on the season and 4-0 in Big Ten play.
