Men's basketball forward Kenny Goins has undergone a successful sports hernia surgery and is expected to be out of action for six weeks, the team announced Wednesday. Goins is coming into this season on scholarship after being redshirted as a preferred walk-on last year.
Goins averaged 21.1 points, 14.8 rebounds and 4.8 blocks as a senior for Warren Mott in 2014 and passed up other scholarships to walk on at MSU a year ago.
Preseason practices for the Spartans begin this Friday, and they begin their season Nov. 13 at home against Florida Atlantic.
