Kornacki: LeVert Discusses Why He Decided to Stay the Course at Michigan

ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- Caris LeVert is going to experience something few college basketball players with NBA futures ever do. He's going to play his senior season for the University of Michigan.

It was a difficult decision that caused him to play a mental tug of war. He said he thought about what his late father, Darryl Wayne LeVert, would be telling him. He thought of his mother, Kim, a first grade teacher, and his younger brother, Darryl Marcus, who played college basketball just up the road in Flint. His Wolverine teammates and coaches stayed in the front of his mind, too.
