Michigan State basketball has extended an offer to a local prospect with longtime ties to the Spartans program.
Kingston Thomas of East Lansing, Michigan, announced via social media on Tuesday that he had received an offer from the Spartans.
Thomas is the son of David Thomas, who played at Michigan State and once served as the Spartans director of basketball operations. The elder Thomas was a member of the Spartans’ 2000 national championship team under coach Tom Izzo.
Kingston Thomas plays for East Lansing High School and has picked up interest from numerous Mid-American Conference schools. According to The D Zone, Kingston Thomas has offers from Central Michigan, Eastern Michigan, Western Michigan, Toledo and Bowling Green State.
It’s unclear at this time if the Spartans are extending Thomas a scholarship offer or a preferred walk-on spot. We should learn more about his recruitment in the coming months.
