Spartan Transfer Forward Gives Preview of What Fans Can Expect This Season
On Tuesday, Michigan State showcased its new additions with an 85-67 exhibition victory over Ferris State. The win highlighted the promising talent of new forward Frankie Fidler, who led the team in scoring.
Fidler, a transfer who has quickly made his mark on the team, contributed 14 points in a performance that not only underscores his scoring ability but also signals his potential to fill a significant gap left by departing players.
With key players leaving the program, including some who were pivotal in previous seasons -- guards Tyson Walker and AJ Hoggard -- there was a palpable concern about how the Spartans would adapt. Fidler’s arrival comes at a critical juncture as Michigan State seeks to maintain its competitive edge in the Big Ten. His scoring ability and versatility on the court could be vital in helping the team transition smoothly into this new chapter.
Fidler’s performance against Ferris State demonstrated his ability to impact the game in various ways. His shooting touch and offensive awareness allowed him to find openings and create scoring opportunities, making him a valuable asset in the Spartans' offensive schemes. As Fidler continues to acclimate to his new environment, there is excitement surrounding how he can further develop his game and assume a leadership role within the roster.
The Spartans' recent win also reflects the overall depth and talent of the team. With several players stepping up, the collective effort resulted in a commanding victory. Coach Tom Izzo’s ability to integrate new talent with returning players is crucial, and the chemistry developing on the court is encouraging. This combination of seasoned leadership and fresh talent promises to make the season not just competitive, but exhilarating for fans.
Looking ahead, the upcoming season holds significant promise for Michigan State. The team is poised to be a contender in the Big Ten, and Fidler's contributions will be essential as the Spartans navigate the challenges ahead. His experience and skill will complement the strengths of returning players, creating a dynamic squad that could rival the best in the conference.
With Frankie Fidler leading the charge, the 2024-25 season could be a thrilling one for Michigan State basketball.
