Michigan State basketball ready for 1st exhibition vs. Division II Ferris State

EAST LANSING — It has been a long seven months for Tom Izzo and his Michigan State basketball players.

One that finally ends Wednesday night when his unranked Spartans host Division II Ferris State in their exhibition opener.

“Practice was really good today,” Izzo said Tuesday. “We've had some good practices, we've had a couple of bad practices, which is about normal. We're sick of playing against each other.”

Tipoff is 7 p.m. at Breslin Center. The game will be streamed on BTN-Plus.

It will be the first time MSU stepping onto the court since its 86-80 overtime loss to UCLA in the First Four.
