Surgery for MSU's Kalin Lucas a success
The procedure on Lucas' left foot/ankle went well. He's hoping to join the team in Indy later this week. Elsewhere in the world of college basketball, there are conflicting reports on what's going on with Oregon and Tubby Smith. http://www.detnews.com/article/20100330/SPORTS0202/3300422/1132/rss18
Spartans' Chris Allen, Delvon Roe ready to endure pain with Final Four trip on the line
Allen says he would have gone 30 minutes against UNI if not for foul trouble, but also says he tweaked the foot early in the second half and was in quite a bit of pain. Quote: "I don't care what happens tomorrow because I've got a week to recover. I'll just go all out." Roe says his knee "has as...
Chris Allen expects to play more than four minutes Friday
Allen's foot is green, not purple, now. Seems liked good karma for a Spartan player, at least. Practiced for 50 minutes without pain yesterday. Switching to shoes with more stability/support. My intuition is that that we'll do well to get a good 10-15 minutes out of Allen tonight. Austin...

We've got a 'MASH' unit. The bottom of Chris' foot is purple, Delvon is playing on one leg and Raymar looks like a hockey player with his tooth cut in half. We think we can get Chris back -- after showing toughness we've never seen from him -- and we'll hold Delvon out of practice to let him rest...
Allen "minute-to-minute"
Strained arch. In a boot. Game-time decision. Definitely puts a crimp in Tom Izzo's plans. Lucas insisted on practicing today. Claims to be 100%. http://noise.typepad.com/hey_joe/2010/03/allen-minutetominute.html

Draymond Green says his right knee feels pretty good after injuring it in the UM game. Wore a brace in Thursday's practice. He "tweaked" it. Good news from Eric Lacy
That won't happen for another couple of weeks -- where he's back (at least) 95 percent. But at...
That won't happen for another couple of weeks -- where he's back (at least) 95 percent. But at least we're making some progress. He's playing in games now and that's really going to help us. Tom Izzo on Raymar Morgan
Winston out for year
As expected; torn ACL. Nichol is day-to-day (but aren't we all?). Caper is A-OK. http://noise.typepad.com/hey_joe/2009/10/winston-out-for-year.html
Mlive: Nitchman listed as day-to-day
[Bumped. -KJ] He could be back as early as the CMU game, but if he's not 100% it sounds as though Dantonio would be comfortable using the backups. http://www.mlive.com/spartans/index.ssf/2009/09/michigan_state_center_joel_nit.html
