## Resource

We opened talking MSU basketball after the opening night of the Moneyball Pro-Am — who stood out and what we saw, especially among MSU's freshmen, big guys and Jeremy Fears Jr.. Then a conversation with The Athletic's Cody Stavenhagen on the Tigers, where things go from here, criticism of A.J. Hinch and Scott Harris, and the trade deadline (20:00). Plus, we talk NBA draft, the three Michigan players and the Pistons' first-round selection (46:30).
