EAST LANSING, Mich. — Jaden Akins scored 25 points and Michigan State beat Samford 83-75, but Michigan State freshman Jase Richardson left the game late with a left ankle injury. Richardson, the son of former NBA player and Spartan Jason Richardson, scored 12 points before leaving the game in the final minute and was helped to the bench where the training staff wrapped ice on his ankle. Josh Holloway scored eight points during a 12-5 surge to pull Samford 79-73 with 31 seconds left before the Spartans sealed it at the line. Jaden Brownell scored 19 points to lead Samford (4-2).
