Michigan State basketball might have just found their next young star. On Thursday night, MSU freshman Kur Teng, flanked by incoming transfer center Szymon Zapala, led Team Goodfellas to a Moneyball Pro-Am championship win after taking down top-seeded TriStar Trust, which included MSU players Jaxon Kohler and Gehrig Normand.
Kur Teng put up some huge numbers in Moneyball, including a 42-point gam in round one against a team that had Tre Holloman, Tyson Walker, and Marcus Bingham Jr. For his efforts, Kur Teng was named the MVP of Moneyball.
In the final, Teng hit one of the biggest shots of tournament to help Team Goodfellas take the win:
