Michigan State basketball, Oakland renew rivalry on Dec. 14, Little Caesars Arena

EAST LANSING — Michigan State basketball and Oakland have renewed their series for six more years. And the Spartans and Golden Grizzlies once again will take their annual matchup to Detroit.

MSU will face Oakland on Dec. 14 at Little Caesars Arena, their second meeting at the home of the Detroit Pistons and Red Wings in the past three years since it opened.

“I love our team having a chance to play in Detroit and at a great venue like Little Caesars Arena,” MSU coach Tom Izzo said in a release. “This will be special for Cassius Winston to play in his hometown as a senior and it’s a great opportunity for Spartan alumni in Detroit to come see us play.
