He is entering his fourth year in the program, with his role growing each year.

Sanders has appeared in 26 career games, averaging 0.4 points per game across 1.2 minutes per game.I personally always enjoy these type of videos and moments since it's an opportunity to recognize the players who aren't typically in the spotlight.

Sanders clearly deserved this moment and I'm glad the program shared this with fans by posting the reaction video as well.Contact/Follow us @The SpartansWire on X (formerly Twitter) and like our page onFacebookto follow ongoing coverage of Michigan State news, notes and opinion.
