This definitely comes as a surprise. Bridges was probably going to be a lottery pick, having averaged 16.9 points and 8.3 rebounds per game as the Big Ten’s Freshman of the Year. As part of a group of four highly-touted freshmen, the Spartans would be a very dangerous team with all of them returning to school. Tom Izzo’s annual Midnight Madness extravagance is going to be something else at this rate.
