EAST LANSING — The final moments Saturday between Michigan State basketball and Northwestern capped off one of the toughest games of Marcus Bingham Jr.’s career.
The senior center, who had returned to the court as the target for a last-gasp inbounds play after being benched for nearly all of the game's final minutes, missed the front end of a one-and-one free throw with 0.7 seconds left to seal the Spartans’ 64-62 loss.
It was the only second Bingham played in the game's final 5:36 – benched in favor of Joey Hauser at the center spot.
