EAST LANSING - Michigan State sophomore forward Miles Bridges is day-to-day after suffering an ankle sprain against Stony Brook on Sunday, according to Michigan State coach Tom Izzo.

Izzo was encouraged, though, that the sprain is not a high ankle sprain.

"Thank God it's not a high ankle sprain," Izzo said. "It's just a sprain where he rolled it. He'll be day-to-day, but it is not a high ankle, which is encouraging."

Izzo said Bridges will be reevaluated in 24-48 hours. He said the ankle swelled some initially but then didn't swell much after that.

Bridges was not available for comment after the game.

Bridges suffered the injury with 8:04 left in the Spartans' 93-71 win over Stony Brook at the Breslin Center. On a drive to the basket, Bridges stepped on an opponents' foot and rolled the ankle.

After falling down, Bridges got up and walked around on the ankle, appearing to try to stretch it out. He then went to the bench, before returning to try to attempt the ensuing free throws. But since Michigan State had already subbed in a player for him, referees made him stay out of the game. He then walked to the locker room with a trainer and did not return.

The injury comes as the Spartans enter one of their busiest stretches of the season.

On Tuesday, the team is scheduled to fly to Portland, Oregon to play in the Phil Knight Invitational. They will open that tournament with a Thursday game against DePaul and continue with games on Friday and Sunday.

Izzo said Michigan State will be cautious with Bridges' return.

"Miles is tough enough to play through it, but we're not going to take any chances either. We're going to see where it's at."

Bridges scored 20 points before leaving Sunday's game. On the season, he's averaging 19.7 points and 7.0 rebounds per game.
