Martin Luther King Day, Michigan State Basketball, Wisconsin Basketball, Detroit Pistons, Ben Wallace, Lindsey Hunter, and Weekend Winners.

Happy Martin Luther King Day from everybody here at Current Sports! As is a MLK Day tradition, the agenda is chalked full with basketball. Al, Isaac, and callers chime into what went wrong for Michigan State basketball after their loss to Wisconsin. What needs to change in order for the Spartans to avoid their third loss in a row? Then, former Detroit Pistons guard Lindsey Hunter joins the show to chime in on the current state of the Pistons, Ben Wallace's status as a legend, and what he's currently doing. After a lengthy chat, Al and Isaac each give their 'Weekend Winners.'
