Donald Bassett, a 54-year-old man from Mecosta County won a $350,000 prize after spinning the prize wheel on The Big Spin, a TV show hosted by Detroit basketball champion John Salley. Donald Bassett was selected to participate in the show after entering non-winning The Big Spin tickets at MIBigSpin.com.

“The drawing took place on my birthday and when I didn’t get a call that day I thought: ‘Man, I didn’t win!’” said Bassett. “The next day I answered a call from a number I did not recognize, and it was a woman from the Michigan Lottery telling me I had been selected to be on the Big Spin show!

“I’m so excited to win a life-changing amount of money. I’m going to live debt-free and put the rest away for my retirement in two years.”
