Every year, Michigan State basketball sees a few players step up to take the reins as the “go-to” guys, and with the departures of Aaron Henry and Josh Langford, Tom Izzo is hoping to see one of his veterans assume that role.
There are some upperclassmen like Marcus Bingham Jr., Malik Hall, or Joey Hauser who could step up as leaders, captains, and go-to scorers, but one senior is the favorite for the role: Gabe Brown.
