On Thursday night, Michigan State basketball outlasted a second half charge from the San Jose State Spartans. MSU’s lead dwindled to ten, but the Big Ten Spartans put away the west coast Spartans to win 79-60. Spartan Shadows had photographer Nolan Gerou on hand to capture the magic from the final test before Michigan State basketball heads out to New York to face Kentucky in the Champions Classic.
