As NBA draft approaches, Michigan's D.J. Wilson trending as a late first-round pick

ANN ARBOR -- Some team is going to take a chance on D.J. Wilson.

It's just a matter of when and where.

Wilson, the Michigan forward who opted to leave school and enter the 2017 NBA Draft, remains one of the more enigmatic prospects on the board. The draft is Thursday night and, since announcing his decision to formally withdraw from U-M, Wilson has remained off the grid. His name hasn't popped up for team workouts since he strained a quad in early May. He hasn't conducted any media interviews since the NBA Combine in mid-May.
