Quick google search says healing takes about 3 weeks. That would put him back just before the conference tournament. Would probably hurt their conference title chances and seeding, but not damage their long term prospects too severely

ReegsShannon · February 17, 2019, 11:28pm

Yeah, it seems like he’s out atleast 6 weeks. So done for B10 season

Slytherin1 · February 17, 2019, 11:39pm

Wow. That changes things.

Michigan State’s Nick Ward has hairline fracture in left hand

JJ3 · February 17, 2019, 11:44pm

Damn. Feel bad for Ward.

jemblue · February 17, 2019, 11:46pm

It shouldn’t affect his NBA stock - he should make a full recovery by draft time. Though is he enough of a prospect to leave?

chezaroo · February 17, 2019, 11:47pm

On to playing “some weird guys” for foreseeable future.

Realistically, hard to lose your 2nd and 3rd options and be a real legitimate threat to win the league now.

chezaroo · February 17, 2019, 11:48pm

No. He has zero NBA future. Overseas is his chance.

Michigan now will have been the favorite in every conference game they played this season. Wonder if that’s ever happened to us before?

Ten times a road favorite seems really odd.

McQuaid is tuned into his inner Izzo.

“It’s getting closer to March, so weird things are happening,” McQuaid said.

JBmoney · February 18, 2019, 12:45am

Wow! Huge blow for MSU. And Ward. Being a hairline, I can’t imagine they would push it given that it could worsen and then he is done.

Can’t imagine this is going to end well for State. I mean this puts Kenny Goins as their number 2 option?!?!? McQuaid?!?!?!?!

When Muhammad and Washington go 2-17 you get:

The secret of Michigan’s success: Keep on running

steve · February 19, 2019, 2:28am

Who do we want to win tonight? After a quick look at Michigan’s NET Team Sheet I think we want Illinois to win as that would probably boost the win at State Farm into Q1 status. Wisconsin will stay solidly in Q1 status unless they totally freefall (which wouldn’t break my heart).

[This is of course besides the obvious “Screw Wisconsin I hope they lose every game forever” sentiment I think most of us share.]

Illinois is officially my 2nd favorite B1G team. Go Illini!!

JBmoney · February 19, 2019, 2:56am

Illinois to help our seeding purposes for the BTT if we fall far enough to end up in Wisconsins range.

But these are probably the top 2 teams I would NOT want to see in the BTT

JBmoney · February 19, 2019, 2:59am

I’m not following this game too closely but is there any particular reason Ethan Happ is not on the floor down the stretch?

wolverinebandit · February 19, 2019, 3:02am

Interesting. No Happ down the stretch. Foul Shooting!!
