GAME RECAP
IMPACT PLAYER
Matt Costello, Michigan State
With Denzel Valentine sitting, Costello took a big role, scoring in the paint — including a monstrous dunk over a couple Gophers — blocking a critical shot at the end and rebounding the ball.
By the numbers
15.2 Percentage difference between the Gophers' 33.8 percent production from the field and MSU's 49 percent shooting.
14 Points combined from Joey King and Carlos Morris, Minnesota's two seniors.
4 Turnovers for the Gophers, a season low.
