Kalin Lucas

One of my favorite teams in College basketball is Michigan State. I love the way they play, I love the way that Tom Izzo coaches. Obviously, they have been blessed with some terrific talent in his 14 years there.

Players make coaches look smart, no doubt about it. The better the players, the better the team and in turn the more positive recognition the coach gets.

I've watched Michigan State play 4-6 times this year. (I try to catch them every time they're on)

Kalin Lucas is the point guard for Michigan State. He is only a sophomore and has a BRIGHT future. If you get a chance, watch Michigan State, and pay special attention to the kid wearing #1.

Thru 20 games (MSU is 17-3), Lucas is averaging 14.9 points while shooting almost 40% behind the arc on 58 attempts. Those numbers aside, the most impressive stat is that he has 101 assists and 31 Turnovers. He is averaging under 2 TO's per game and right at 5 assists.

Lucas is everything that is right with a Point Guard!
