MSU basketball F Jaxon Kohler expected back vs. Northwestern or next week

It appears Michigan State basketball could be getting back forward Jaxon Kohler this week or next.

Spartans head coach Tom Izzo said Kohler practiced on Tuesday and is expected to return for his first game of the year either against Northwestern on Sunday or next week. Izzo listed Kohler as doubtful for the Spartans’ next game on Thursday against Penn State.

Kohler injured his foot in the preseason and has yet to play for the Spartans this year. His return should provide more depth to Michigan State in the post and should be a big addition moving forward.

MSU PF Jaxon Kohler named 2023 Moneyball ProAm MVP

Michigan State power forward Jaxon Kohler has been named the Moneyball ProAm Most Valuable Player for the 2023 season

Michigan State power forward Jaxon Kohler has been named the Moneyball ProAm Most Valuable Player for the 2023 season.

Kohler received this impressive honor on Monday. He averaged 34.5 points per game during this year’s annual summer event.

Kohler averaged only 3 points per game during his freshman season this past year. But this stellar showing during the Moneyball ProAm event could be a sign of what’s to come during the 2023-24 season. That isn’t always the case, of course, but let’s hope it means we will see an even better Kohler for the Spartans this upcoming season.
