Michigan State lands big man Mady Sissoko

By ADAM ZAGORIA

Michigan State scored a commitment Tuesday from big man Mady Sissoko, the 6-foot-9 center from Wasatch (UT) Academy.

He also considered BYU, with Kansas and Memphis also in the mix.

“Michigan State is a great school and the basketball staff is amazing,” Sissoko told ESPN. “Coach [Tom] Izzo is such a humble and honest person. I know he can help me become a better player. Every time I speak with Coach Izzo, he always keeps it real.”

He averaged 13.2 points, 9.1 rebounds and 1.9 blocks for Vegas Elite on the Nike EYBL circuit last spring.

Sissoko joins 5-11 point guard Jalen Terry in Michigan State’s 2020 class. They continue to recruit point guard A.J. Hoggard and power forward Jaemyn Brakefield of Huntington (W.V.) Prep.
