Tom Izzo, players, and more comment on Cassius and Zachary Winston after Binghamton win

Cassius Winston was not the only Spartan to lose a brother this weekend, it sounds like the whole locker room, including coach Izzo did as well. Cassius Winston’s brother Zachary died last night after being hit by a train and he still decided to play in tonight’s win over Binghamton. The team, along with Izzo, took some time to talk about both Cassius and Zachary Winston after the game to remember Zachary and talk about how they will try to be there for Cassius in this difficult time.
