Two former Spartan hoopers were drafted back-to-back in the first round of the G League draft

Two former Michigan State basketball stars have found their homes at the next level, and it came in consecutive action. Tyson Walker and Malik Hall were drafted back-to-back in the first round of the NBA G-League draft, going number seven and eight, respectively.

Tyson Walker is heading to the Texas Legends, the G-League affiliate of the Dallas Mavericks, while Malik Hall will go to the Greensboro Swarm, the affilate of the Charlotte Hornets. It’s a fitting landing spot for Hall, who played for the Hornets’ Summer League squad.
