The Michigan Wolverines are usually known for their tremendous football program but this year their basketball team is getting all the publicity. With a 16-1 start to the season and five games remaining, the Wolverines are looking to have one of the best their best seasons ever and lock in a one seed for this upcoming NCAA tournament. They are just coming of a victory over #4 Ohio State 92-87 making them the frontrunner in the Big Ten regular season championship race. Freshman, Hunter Dickinson, has been a huge success for the Wolverines this year coming in averaging 15 points and 7.8 rebounds per game. Senior leader, Isaiah Livers is another player that is a huge reason why Michigan is having the season they are, and it isn’t just from his play, even though he is averaging 15 points and 6 rebounds per game, he is a great leader and everyone on the team respects him as the senior captain. Their upcoming schedule consists of two top ten teams in #5 Illinois and #9 Iowa, and a two game series with a desperate MSU team. With only one loss this late in the season, Michigan seems to be a lock for a 1 seed unless they stumble towards the end of the regular season, and with this tough of a schedule it is possible even with how dominate they have been. Michigan is primed for another deep run in the NCAA tournament and the fans are thinking championship or bust after two losses in the championship game in the last 8 years.
