Michigan State signee Max Christie becomes Tom Izzo's first McDonald's All American in 4 years

Michigan State basketball fans received a point of pride Tuesday amid an uncharacteristically poor season.

Spartans signee Max Christie was named to the 2021 McDonald's All American team. He's the first MSU commit recognized by the event since Jaren Jackson Jr. in 2017.

Tom Izzo's recruits were fixtures in the game before this recent dry spell. Miles Bridges, Joshua Langford, Deyonta Davis, Caleb Swanigan (who would eventually flip to Purdue) and Gary Harris were all members.
