Michigan State basketball continued their annual dominance of Oakland on Wednesday with a sloppy victory over the Grizzlies, 67-54.
The Spartans weren’t particularly sharp but they used a strong finish to the first half and electric start to the second half to build a lead they’d never surrender. Michigan State received double-digit scoring efforts from Joey Hauser (16 points), Jaden Akins (15 points) and Tyson Walker (13 points). Akins had a career high in scoring against Oakland.
Michigan State improved to 8-4 on the season with the win and will next take the court against Buffalo in their final non-conference game of the year on Dec. 30.
