Michigan State and Tennessee will meet in an exhibition basketball game to raise money for relief efforts in the aftermath of the deadliest U.S. wildfire in more than a century. Michigan State announced Wednesday that it will play the Volunteers on Oct. 29 at the Breslin Center and all proceeds will be given to the Hawai'i Community Foundation Maui Strong Fund. Maui's historic seaside community of Lahaina was devasted by a wildfire, leaving more than 100 dead and an unknown number of people missing.
