4. Aaron Henry has second straight double-digit scoring game

Freshmen take some time to adjust to the college level on the hardwood and Aaron Henry is no exception. The first-year wing has shown flashes of being a star for the Spartans, but his shot has been wildly inconsistent and he has been a turnover machine, at times, this season.

However, he’s worked hard to put all the struggles behind him and he’s coming off his best game of the season — a 15-point, five-rebound and three-assist showing against Nebraska.

In that win against the Cornhuskers, Henry shot 5-of-8 from the field and added a 3-pointer on two attempts as well. He’s starting to get his shot back as he’s made a three in consecutive games for the first time since November.

Henry’s going to have another big game, reaching double figures in the scoring column for a second straight game and the fourth time in his MSU career.
