Josh Langford was on pace to have his best season as a Spartan in 2018-19 and there was talk that he might be headed off to the NBA after the season, and then the injury bug bit — and bit hard.
Langford played in just 13 games, missing the entire second half of the regular season as well as the NCAA Tournament as he got treatment for his foot.
Resting it all season and rehabbing it during the summer, it seemed like the Spartans would have a loaded roster when he returned in the fall. He was a 15-point per game scorer and had the ability to create his own shot, make long-range jumpers and defend at a high level.
