  "account": "Jeremy Fears Jr. led Michigan State to a record-breaking game against Northern Iowa, going 24 points with six makes from three. The Spartans broke their own three-point record with 18 successful shots on 37 attempts, surpassing their previous mark of 17 set against Purdue in 2014 and matched against Rutgers in 2016. Freshman guard Julius Avent added to the record with his 18th three-pointer in the final minute.\n\nFears Jr. was instrumental in the victory, playing with a perfect five-for-five shooting from the field before halftime. His four makes from three tied his career-high and helped set the team record. His teammate Jasiah Jervis also contributed significantly with 20 points and a career-high five makes from three.\n\nHowever, forward Anton Bonke had a disappointing game, scoring zero points and making no impact beyond two blocks and three turnovers. The Spartans' defense was solid, with 61 fouls called, 26 against the Spartans and 35 against Northern Iowa. The game marked a crucial step for Michigan State as they prepare to face the No. 11 Tennessee Volunteers in their next match.",
