On today's episode of Current Sports with Al Martin, Al leads the show by recapping MSU basketball's first exhibition game that took place last night at the Breslin Center as the Spartans defeated Albion College 85-50. Al discusses what he saw from the team's first open exhibition and what they will need to work on prior to their first regular season game next Wednesday against the Kentucky Wildcats. In segment two Al dissects the news from yesterday in which the NCAA stated that starting in 2021 its players will be able to profit off their likeness.
