Michigan State Men's Basketball; Big Ten Tournament; Malik McDowell; Aaron McMann; MLIVE; Detroit Pistons; Detroit Lions 

On today's "Current Sports with Al Martin" we preview the start of the Big Ten Tournament out in Washington, D.C.  Who will the Michigan State men's basketball team play? Also, do the Spartans need another win to solidify a NCAA tourney spot? Al ponders...

Later on in the hour, we invite Aaron McMann, Detroit Pistons beat reporter for MLIVE.com, to talk about the two-game winning streak of the Detroit Pistons. Can the team continue the upward trend tonight on the road against the Indiana Pacers?

All of that, as well as a conversation on the NFL draft stock of former MSU defensive end Malik McDowell. Enjoy!
