Jaden Akins Michigan State NBA Michigan Basketball AJ Hoggard Spartans

The last domino for the 2023-24 Michigan State basketball roster has fallen. On Wednesday, Chris Solari broke the news that was then confirmed by the official MSU basketball Twitter account that Jaden Akins and A.J. Hoggard were withdrawing from the 2023 NBA draft and returning to East Lansing for another season.

The return of Akins and Hoggard should cement the Spartans as a preseason top-10 team that will be considered to be one of the betting favorites to make a Final Four run next season.
