Jaden Akins sank seven 3-pointers and scored a career-high 23 points to help Michigan State coach Tom Izzo notch his 700th career victory with an 81-62 romp over Michigan on Tuesday night. “Seven hundred wins at the same school means a lot,” Izzo said. Many former players, including Steve Smith and Mateen Cleaves, celebrated on the court after the game with Izzo.

“That’s what means something to me,” said Izzo, who turned 69 on Tuesday. Izzo, who took the reins at Michigan State in 1995 for his first and only head coaching job, has 288 losses. He becomes the 38th men's coach to accomplish the feat, including former Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski, who won a record 1,202 games.
