Just when everyone thought Tom Izzo could just take Frankie Fidler and end up in the transfer portal, it appears the Spartans are moving on a center in the transfer portal. According to reports, Michigan State could be in the lead for a Central Longwood transfer.
Szymon Zapala, a native of Zaborze, Poland, is 7 feet tall and 240 pounds. After spending three seasons at Utah State, he spent last season at Longwood, averaging 9.8 points and 5.6 rebounds per game in just 16.8 minutes per game.
In addition to Michigan State, it is known that Oklahoma, Rhode Island, VCU and Wichita State were all involved with the big man.
Hearing that Szymon Zapala appears to be headed to Michigan State… URI and Wichita St. were there, coming in at P5 NIL leads. Rams remain in the mix for other big and swing types.
