Ethan Taylor can step right into a Michigan State frontline that is going to need immediate reinforcements next year…and Tom Izzo may be just the right coach to help Taylor go to the next level.

The best thing in the NBA last night - Nick Smith going for 25pts (10-15 FG & 5-6 3pt) and 6ats in a Lakers win. Been a long road for Smith, who's just 21-years-old. Great to see him playing with confidence again.
