The occasion gave Tom Izzo a chance to officially comment on his newest player. He called Walker “a talented player who had two really strong years at Northeastern.” “In watching Tyson play, he’s a guy who can get his teammates open looks, he can get into the lane and he’s a crafty finisher because of his speed,” Izzo said in a school press release. “He was named his league’s defensive player of the year and he’s got a good feel and vision for the game. He brings two years of college experience with him and we’re looking forward to having him join the Spartan family.”
