Tyson Walker: A

We have seen Tyson Walker grow into the best player on the team. One more year of Walker would not only be welcomed but it would also be huge for national title and Big Ten title hopes in 2023-24.

Will he come back? We don’t know yet, but he’s got the option.

Michigan State plays so much better as a team when Walker is hunting his shots and he gets at least 15 up. He shot 15 times on Saturday against the Buckeyes, finishing with 15 points on seven makes. He had six assists, three rebounds, and a steal and just looked like one of the best players on the floor yet again.

Walker is playing out of his mind over the past couple of weeks and it feels like he has a Travis Trice-type run left in him.

All three guards battled it out for the highest grade on Saturday.
