Jeremy Fears Jr. was a big recruit for Michigan State coach Tom Izzo, who is looking for Fears to be his floor general going forward. Fears suffered a leg injury last season, but he just gave an update the Spartans are happy to hear.
Michigan State coach Tom Izzo can breathe easier going into the 2024 season, which is still months away. The Spartans are in Spain to play three exhibition games and, as one might assume, bond as a team with the new season on the horizon.
"Obviously, I still have to rehab every day, still have to be smart, take care of my body," Fears told reporters last week. "But just being able to feel like myself again, move, burst, quick, jump, and be able to go two, three hours with no problem." Fears was one of the big neon-names of the class, the No. 7-ranked point guard of the class per 247Sports Composite rankings. Fears was not the highest-rated recruit in the class, but 247Sports' Director of Scouting, Adam Finkelstein, found much to love about the point guard's game..
Fears will be Izzo's point guard of the foreseeable future, but the burden of success will not just be on Fears' shoulders this season. His fellow classmates will carry just as much pressure.
