If Michigan State’s four-year seniors are done, though, they ended on a high note. Seniors Gabe Brown and Marcus Bingham Jr. were Michigan State’s two leading scorers in its NCAA Tournament loss to Duke on Sunday night. “The job Marcus did and starting us off with those blocked shots, Gabe had an unbelievable day, hit some big, big, big shots,” Izzo said. On Sunday night, though, they mostly sounded as if their Michigan State careers were over. Hoggard, Walker and others, Izzo was bullish on Michigan State in 2022-23, even if the Spartans’ seniors are truly done.

Duke survived a tense finish against Michigan State and extended Mike Krzyzewski’s final NCAA Tournament run.

Despite a major push late in the second half, Michigan State basketball lost a down-to-the-wire battle against Duke in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.

Michigan State battled back in the second half but faded in the final three minutes in a 85-76 loss to Duke on Sunday night at Bon Secours Wellness Arena. Michigan State trailed through the entire second half before it tied the game with 6:09 left on a pair of free throws from A.J. Michigan State was blocked on back-to-back shots during that late stretch, then turned the ball over after Roach’s 3-pointer. Michigan State had one of its best 3-point shooting games of the season, hitting 11 of 22 3-pointers, including seven in the first half. Senior Gabe Brown led Michigan State with 18 points and made four 3-pointers.

The matchup between Hall of Fame coaches Mike Krzyzewski of Duke and Tom Izzo of Michigan State highlights the final day of the NCAA Tournament's opening weekend.

GREENVILLE, S.C. – Tom Izzo and Mike Krzyzewski first played against one another in 1998, when Duke and Michigan State met in a top-10 December matchup in Chicago. “It was kind of like we have an opportunity to play Duke and measure up,” Izzo said of a game his team eventually lost by six. No matter who wins, Izzo vs. Krzyzewski will come to an end on Sunday night at Bon Secours Wellness Arena. It will also mark the seventh straight season that Michigan State and Duke have played against one another, a rarity for two non-conference opponents. Krzyzewski, though, downplays the significance of that mark, particularly after Michigan State has won two of the last three.

Here are this morning's top stories.

GREENVILLE, S.C. – Tom Izzo came here to South Carolina trying to keep his focus on Davidson, knowing the danger of playing in the NCAA Tournament against a hot-shooting mid-major playing near its campus. But the fact that Blue Devils coach Mike Krzyzewski is coaching in his final NCAA Tournament after 42 seasons as Duke makes for an unprecedented storyline. Come Sunday night, Izzo will be trying to end the career of the coach who has more wins than any other in college basketball history. “I like the game, I just don’t like the record in that matchup over the years,” Izzo said. Sunday will mark the sixth time the two coaches have met in the NCAA Tournament, the most that any two coaches have faced one another in the tournament, according to ESPN.

GREENVILLE, S.C. – In the always unpredictable NCAA Tournament, one outcome came as no surprise:Michigan State vs. Duke got the prime television slot on Sunday. The Spartans’ second-round NCAA Tournament game against the Blue Devils will tip off at 5:15 p.m. on Sunday from Bon Secours Wellness Arena. 7 seed Spartans advanced to the game with a one-point win over Davidson late Friday night in an opening-round matchup. Duke beat Cal State-Fullerton, 78-61, in the game immediately preceding Michigan State’s. Several sportsbooks installed Duke as a 6.5-point favorite early Saturday morning, including Caesars, Draftkings and Circa Sports.

GREENVILLE, S.C. – With its season on the line in a hostile environment against a pesky mid-major squad, Michigan State found its offense, then its defense to close out a win. Senior forward Joey Hauser tied his career-high with 27 points to lead Michigan State’s offensive effort. 7 seed Michigan State (23-12) now advances to play No. But the Wildcats missed two shots on the ensuing possession, and Michigan State held on through a tight final stretch. Defensively, Michigan State overcame an up-and-down performance to limit Davidson to one made shot in a six-minute span late in the game.

Michigan State basketball rode a late surge Friday to knock off No. 10 seed Davidson and advance to the second round of the NCAA Tournament.

Duke began retiring Hall of Famer Mike Krzyzewski’s final NCAA Tournament with minimal stress, beating Cal State Fullerton 78-61.

Charlie Moore made two free throws with three seconds left and finished with 16 points to lift 10th-seeded Miami to a 68-66 win over No. 7 seed Southern California in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

“I think there’s a belief that there’s something in the air at Michigan State that we believe that we can always make a run,” Izzo said. Michigan State hopes that run will start with its tournament opener on Friday against Davidson (9:40 p.m., CBS). That includes Foster Loyer, the former Michigan State point guard who is now Davidson’s leading scorer at 16.4 points per game. Walker will be one of several key Michigan State players playing in their first NCAA Tournament, along with freshmen Max Christie and Jaden Akins. But like all Michigan State players, they’ve heard from former Spartans greats this year to help them get into the mindset of a Michigan State NCAA Tournament team.

GREENVILLE, S.C. – The biggest question for Michigan State entering this NCAA Tournament has been answered. Spartans point guard Tyson Walker will play for Michigan State in their tournament opener against Davidson on Friday night, Tom Izzo said on Thursday. Walker exited Michigan State’s Saturday game against Purdue after suffering an ankle injury in the first three minutes of the game. Walker’s ankle has been the biggest question mark for this Michigan State team as it enters the NCAA Tournament off of two wins at the Big Ten tournament last week. If Walker is limited, Michigan State will rely on A.J.

When Bruce Pearl was asked what Mike Krzyzewski means to college basketball at the NCAA Tournament, the Auburn coach likened Coach K to Dick Vitale.

GREENVILLE, SC - East Lansing is an 11 hour road trip to see the Michigan State Spartans play Davidson in the first round of the NCAA Tournament this Friday at 9:40 p.m. The 7 seeded Spartans are a one point favorite to beat the 10 seeded Wildcats at Bon Secours Wellness Arena in Greenville, South Carolina. Davidson is led by Foster Loyer, who played his first three seasons at Michigan State. The winner will play either second seeded Duke or 15 seeded Cal-State Fullerton in the second round on Sunday at the same venue.

The Census Bureau was able to remedy some of the security deficiencies after they were pointed out by the Office of Inspector General, and others were corrected right before most U.S. residents began answering the 2020 census questionnaire in March, the report said. “The integrity of census data is crucial,” the report said. The 2020 census was the first once-a-decade count in which respondents were encouraged to answer the questionnaire online, though they could also respond by mail or telephone.

(AP Photo/LM Otero)ORLANDO, Fla. The U.S. Census Bureau is cutting its schedule for data collection for the 2020 census a month short as legislation that would have extended the national head count's deadlines stalls in the U.S. Senate. But Census Bureau director Steven Dillingham said that the agency aimed to have the same level of responses as past censuses. The bureau also asked Congress in April to extend the deadline for turning in apportionment data used for drawing congressional districts from Dec. 31, 2020, to April 30, 2021. Top Census Bureau officials have said it would be impossible to meet the end-of-the-year deadline, and that the bureau expected bipartisan support for the request. The chambers inaction coincides with a memorandum Trump issued last month to try to exclude people living in the U.S. illegally from being part of the process for redrawing congressional districts.
