Men's Basketball Practice — Oct. 20, 2008

In their third practice of the season, head coach Tom Izzo put the men’s basketball team through their paces at Breslin Center.

It was a typically tough Izzo practice and he said afterward he is pleased with how the team is coming together. The team still needs work, he added, saying sometimes they need to refocus.

Senior forward Marquise Gray said the day’s practice was one of the more intense he had been through in his time at MSU.

Senior center Idong Ibok said he worked hard on improving his hands during the summer and feels like the hard work is already paying off.
