MSU sophomore guard Gary Harris is forgoing his final two seasons and heading to the NBA, according to a release from the MSU athletics department.
It took four years for Keith Appling to realize he doesn’t get a second chance. Now that the MSU men’s basketball season — and his career — is over, it’s too late.
