Michigan basketball bounces back by blowing out Maryland, 87-63

Michigan basketball was determined to bounce back after its first loss of the season.

And the Wolverines did so in decisive fashion.

U-M beat Maryland with relative ease on Tuesday night, 87-63, a few days after suffering its first loss at Minnesota on Saturday.

Michigan led by 17 at halftime thanks to stellar 3-point shooting. The Wolverines made their first five 3s — three from point guard Mike Smith and two from forward Isaiah Livers — and shot 8 of 14 in the first half alone. They finished 12 of 23 from 3-point range.
