Playing point guard in Tom Izzo’s system is not an easy task, especially when you’re just a true freshman and are trying to learn it, but Jaden Akins has reportedly made a seamless transition from the high school ranks to Michigan State basketball.
Expectations were high for the athletic guard from Farmington, Mich., coming in.
And he has reportedly exceeded them already and he’s only been on campus for a few months.
According to Justin Thind of 247Sports, Akins has been exceeding expectations this offseason after talking to people inside the program.
