In a year filled with storylines, most filled with chaos, it is refreshing to finally get something that everyone in Spartan nation can truly smile about. Earlier this week, MSU coach Tom Izzo revealed that Joshua Langford was “as close to 100 percent as he is going to be,” and that the fifth-year senior guard is currently penciled into the starting lineup.

Langford has spent most of the last two seasons sidelined due to injury, a problem that almost cost the Huntsville, Alabama native his basketball career. A concerning situation for Spartan basketball fans all over, it is amazing to see the basketball star preparing for one last run in East Lansing.

Langford’s three-point shooting ability will be a welcomed return to the Spartan’s line-up. The combo guard is a career 40.7 percent shooter from behind the arc. Averaging 10.5 points per game in his career, Langford was having a breakout year in 2018-19 averaging 15 points a game before a foot injury ended his season.

Hearing that Josh Langford is back and preparing for this upcoming season will be very welcoming and exciting for Spartan fans all over.
