Jordan Scott was given the starting job at shooting guard after an impactful performance against in-state rival Michigan. While he did not start against the Wolverines, Scott entered the game to open the second half as Michigan State adjusted its rotation, sending Divine Ugochukwu to the bench. Against Michigan, Scott made his presence felt with 10 points, two steals, and a block. That performance earned Scott his first career start against Minnesota. Although the Spartans fell on the road, Scott was the lone bright spot in the loss.
