During Purdue’s one point victory over MSU, 7’4" center Zach Edey threw Spartan center Mady Sissoko to the ground. The announcers cheered and the refs called Sissoko for the foul. A change is needed.

Disclaimer: This is a Michigan State writer after they lost to Purdue but echoes a lot of the same thoughts I've seen posted on here.
"At about the 6-minute mark left in the first half, Mady Sissoko was called for a foul. Not a shocking outcome for an all too foul prone player. The shocking part was Sissoko was called for the foul after being body slammed by Zach Edey.
Sissoko and Edey both went for a rebound and got tangled up. Edey did have primary control of the ball, and whipped his body around to shake off Sissoko. If that was all that happened, then the foul is called on Sissoko and we all move on. Except, replay showed a few key moments in the play.
Edey locks Sissoko’s arm into a death grip, then proceeds to do a three point step move, where he spins a complete 360 degrees and uses Sissoko’s arm as a leverage point to hip throw the Spartan Center up and over Edey’s body and to the floor. This move looks familiar to me, as I wrestled in High School, and am pretty sure I was shown how to do this."
