Juwan Howard and the Michigan Wolverines just received major news, as center Hunter Dickinson has announced he is returning for his junior year in Ann Arbor.
Dickinson confirmed to Maize n Brew he received feedback last offseason that included improving his post presence with his right hand and showing improvements, especially from range with his jump shot. Both areas were vastly better than his freshman campaign which saw him as the Big Ten Freshman of the Year, an All-Big Ten First Team nominee and a Second Team All-American.
Despite those improvements, no recent NBA mock drafts had Dickinson in the first round, and some of them didn’t have him in there at all.
