Spartans pick up crystal ball prediction for elite, 5-star PF Xavier Booker

Things appear to be trending in the right direction for Michigan State landing one of the top players in the 2023 class.

Five-star power forward Xavier Booker announced his top 10 schools list on Monday evening — which included Michigan State. Shortly after that was released, a crystal ball prediction in favor of Michigan State was entered for Booker by 247Sports basketball analyst Travis Branham.

Booker ranks as the No. 3 overall prospect in 247Sports’ rankings for the 2023 class. He’s also listed as the No. 1 power forward and No. 1 player from Indiana.

Things change quickly from day-to-day in the recruiting world so one crystal ball prediction shouldn’t make Spartans’ fans feel like Booker is a lock to end up in green-and-white. But it’s definitely a great sign to see and could be an indication of a massive commitment for Tom Izzo and his staff in the near future.
