Getting start on Tuesday Sissoko will start Tuesday's game against Georgia Southern according to coach Tom Izzo, Kyle Austin of MLive.com reports.

Impact Sissoko started the first three games of the season and then has come off the bench the last three. He's played about the same amount of minutes in all of the games, so this likely won't impact his production much. Sissoko starting Tuesday means Carson Cooper will return to the bench.

Steady defensive presence Sissoko ended Sunday's 69-60 win over Marquette with eight points (3-3 FG, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, two blocks and two steals over 21 minutes.

Impact Sissoko doesn't typically see the minutes required for big fantasy production, and often finds himself in foul trouble, but he still plays a valuable role for Michigan State as the starting center and primary rim protector. On Sunday, Sissoko recorded double-digit rebounds for the fifth time this season, and he now has a pair of blocks in both NCAA Tournament games.

Not starting Saturday Sissoko will not be in the starting lineup Saturday against Ohio State, Kyle Austin of MLive.com reports.

Impact The junior will be coming off the bench as all the seniors will be starting Saturday against Ohio State. Still expect Sissoko to have his normal role despite coming off the bench. The center is averaging 5.0 points and 6.2 rebounds this season.

MARCH 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Logs four rebounds in win Sissoko finished Sunday's 62-41 victory over Ohio State with two points (1-3 FG), four rebounds, one assist and one block across 17 minutes.

Impact Sissoko hasn't logged more than five points or five rebounds in four straight games. As he fits into a team that makes full use of its roster, Sissoko hasn't been able to rack up substantial minutes or production on a regular basis.

FEBRUARY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Collects 11 boards in win Sissoko closed Tuesday's 69-65 win over Wisconsin with six points (3-3 FG) and 11 rebounds across 23 minutes.

Impact Sissoko has recorded more rebounds than points in seven straight games following Tuesday's victory over the Badgers. He's also committed 13 fouls in the last three games, fouling out once and riding a fine line much of the time. Even if he's playing for a team that's finding its winning form, Sissoko isn't a guarantee for great production.

JANUARY 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Logs 12 points in loss Sissoko posted 12 points (3-3 FG, 6-8 FT), five rebounds and two blocks in 24 minutes during Sunday's 70-63 loss to Northwestern.

Impact Sissoko scored over 10 points for the second time in three games but hasn't played for more than 24 minutes in that time. In a team that's shown decent work against good teams but also lost two straight games, Sissoko can't put up big numbers without playing for longer stretches.

Gets physical in loss Sissoko chipped in 14 points (4-5 FG, 6-11 FT), nine rebounds and one block in 25 minutes before fouling out of Friday's 64-63 loss to Gonzaga.

Impact Sissoko was far more active throughout the night but still missed five free throws and fouled out. With a role in the lineup to open the season, Sissoko will get chances to figure out what he can contribute in more consistent minutes. Playing as well as he did before his exit will contribute to a better situation.
