East Lansing — Malik Hall admits it will be pretty cool when he hears his name announced as a starter at the Breslin Center.
That’s likely to happen for the first time on Wednesday when No. 14 Michigan State hosts Northwestern, assuming Spartans coach Tom Izzo keeps the same starting lineup he used in Sunday’s victory at Minnesota. That game signified a switch from Izzo as Hall took over for Marcus Bingham and responded by scoring seven points and grabbing six rebounds in 20 minutes.
“It was an amazing feeling,” Hall said Monday back on campus.
