Following his four year career in East Lansing with Michigan State, Jaden Akins is attempting to make his way into professional basketball, starting what he hopes to be a successful career. Akins, a fan favorite who did everything right, has the body type, skill set and work ethic that could find success at the next level.
The first step for his post Michigan State journey is playing in the Portsmouth Invitational, an annually held tournament serving as a pre-combine event for college seniors to showcase their talent and abilities in preparation for the NBA Draft.
Akins had a great showing in his first game at the event, the first of three he will play.
