EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) -- Draymond Green had 14 points and 16
rebounds to lead No. 9 Michigan State to a 64-54 win over No. 23
Michigan on Sunday, backing up his guarantee of a victory.
The Spartans (18-5, 7-3 Big Ten) ended a three-game skid in the
rivalry and moved into sole possession of second place in the
conference behind third-ranked Ohio State.
The Wolverines (17-7, 7-4) haven't won or lost consecutive games
in nearly a month.
Green played, as he promised, with a sprained left knee and the
senior had the best game of his career in the series.
Michigan's Tim Hardaway Jr. missed his first six shots and had a
season-low four points. Teammate Trey Burke had made only one shot before his 3-pointer just before halftime pulled the Wolverines
within eight points. He finished with 11 points.
