In a season defined thus far by adversity, Michigan basketball found itself with its back to the wall yet again on Sunday afternoon.
The Wolverines trailed the entire first half against Minnesota. And to make matters worse, with about two minutes before halftime, standout freshman Jett Howard went down with an ankle injury and had to be helped off the court.
But instead of getting rattled, the Wolverines rallied, led by captain Hunter Dickinson.
U-M used a 15-3 spurt from the end of the first half to the beginning of the second to pull away from Minnesota before it held on for another tight win, 60-56, at Crisler Center.
