Michigan State basketball played host to their arch rival Michigan on senior day, Sunday afternoon. Despite throttling the Wolverines on Sunday, 79-62, all of the talk about the game is about Tre Holloman protecting the Spartans logo and senior day tradition.

Another leader on the team, Jaden Akins, also tried to de-escalate the situation before it started, asking the Michigan players to move. After that request was denied, Holloman took matters into his own hands.

Following the game, and the win, Michigan State’s senior leader spoke to the media, talking about the incident. Watch the interaction from Akins, and showing how great of a leader he is, in the post game interview via X:
