A former Michigan State basketball star has signed with a professional deal with a team from Japan.
It was announced on Thursday that former Spartans star Aaron Henry has signed with the Nagoya Diamond Dolphins of the first division of the Japanese B.League. LIFT Sports announced the signing of Henry on Thursday.
Henry played this past season in Japan where he had a very strong season. He averaged 20.1 points, 6.6 rebounds and 4.6 assists this past season.
Henry starred for the Spartans from 2018 – 2021, where he played 97 career games (including 77 starts). He was notably dominant during his final season, where he carried Michigan State to the NCAA Tournament in 2021. He averaged 15.4 points, 5.6 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game during that year, and was the main reason the Spartans rallied late in the season to reach the NCAA Tournament as a bubble team.
