WATCH: MSU honors 2000 NCAA Championship team during Maryland game

Michigan State honored the 2000 NCAA Championship team during the Maryland game. Watch some clips here including Mateen Cleaves speech.

Michigan State Basketball honored the 2000 NCAA Championship team during halftime of the Maryland game. Mateen Cleaves, Morris Peterson, Mat Ishbia, Al Anagonye, and Adam Ballinger were in attendance. Antonio Smith was also in attendance, although he left the team one year before they were able to win the title. Cleaves spoke to the crowd on behalf of the team to celebrate the occasion.

Check out some clips of this ceremony below and Mateen Cleaves speech:

Always great to see Spartan legends come back to the campus in East Lansing. Mateen Cleaves was very emotional during this ceremony. Who can blame him? This was a special team that will live on forever in the hearts of all MSU basketball fans.

That MSU team beat every single team in the 2000 NCAA Tournament by double digits, including the Championship game, where they knocked off Florida 89-76. It was absolute dominance and also the last time a Big Ten team won the National Championship.
