The Juwan Howard recruiting era is officially underway.
And Howard, Michigan’s new head basketball coach, is going after one of the top players in the country.
Bellflower (Calif.) Mayfair guard Joshua Christopher, a five-star prospect in the 2020 class, announced on Twitter late Tuesday night that he received an offer from the Wolverines — which appears to be the first of Howard’s tenure.
“Blessed to receive an offer from coach Howard and Michigan!” Christopher tweeted.
The 6-foot-4, 200-pound shooting guard is rated the No. 6 overall recruit in the nation for 2020, according to the 247Sports Composite rankings.
