Report: Michigan's Zavier Simpson wrecked car belonging to Warde Manuel's wife

The reason for Michigan senior guard Zavier Simpson’s recent suspension might have come to light on Thursday.

Two weekends ago, Simpson hit a street pole while driving in downtown Ann Arbor early in the morning and initially denied being the driver of the vehicle, Ann Arbor police told MLive.com.

The incident occurred at 3:03 a.m. on Sunday, Jan. 26 at the corner of Hill Street and South Forest Avenue, roughly 12 hours after Michigan’s home loss to Illinois on a last-second shot.
