SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) -Two-time All-Big Ten player Kalin Lucas is out of Michigan State’s second-round NCAA tournament game against Maryland with a leg injury.
The Spartans’ floor leader began hopping on one leg and keeping his left foot off the ground after making a runner near the corner late in the first half. As play continued at the other end, Lucas hopped down court on his right leg and tried to defend the ball before officials gave him an injury timeout.
The junior then hopped to his bench. After a trainer looked at his lower left leg for a moment, Lucas hobbled into a tunnel that leads to the locker room.
Three-point specialist Chris Allen did not start for the Spartans because of a foot injury, but he did play.
Michigan State led by nine points when Lucas left.
