A former Michigan State men’s basketball forward has been invited to the NBA G-League Elite Camp.
Spartans Sports Coverage posted on social media on Monday that former Spartans forward Jaxon Kohler has received an invitation to the NBA G-League Elite Camp. The event will be held in Chicago this upcoming weekend.
Kohler wrapped up his four-years Spartans career this March, finishing his senior season averaging 12.5 points and 8.9 rebounds per game. He started all but three games in each of the last two seasons, and will go down as a fan favorite for the Spartans faithful.
Kohler didn’t receive an invitation to the NBA Combine, but this isn’t a bad alternative as he’ll be given the chance to play his way into at least a spot on a G-League team next season. I would anticipate Kohler getting that opportunity next year assuming he performs well at events like he’ll be participating in this upcoming weekend.
