Michigan State Basketball and Tom Izzo landed the commitment of the No. 1 ranked player in the state of Michigan (according to 247sports) on Wednesday in Pierre Brooks II. Now, they will turn their attention to the No. 2 ranked player in the state in point guard Jaden Akins. According to Jake Weingarten of Stockrisers, the Spartans hosted Akins for a virtual visit on Tuesday.
As mentioned above, Akins is 247sports‘ No. 2 player in the state of Michigan for 2021 and their No. 13 ranked point guard. He is their No. 90 ranked player overall.
Akins is being heavily recruited by Big Ten rivals Michigan and Iowa. If MSU is able to land Akins commitment, that along with the addition of Brooks would be a huge coup in local recruiting.
