The Michigan basketball team didn’t technically start its season on Friday night against Armstrong State University, but it was the first time the new look team has taken the court against a real opponent.
In its first live action, Michigan basketball beat the Pirates 77-49, which, for a scrimmage against Division II team, is kind of beside the point. This team has some major questions heading into the season, and Friday night gave some insight as to how the coaching staff hopes to answer them.
Derrick Walton Jr ran the show, scoring 12 points while grabbing six boards and assisting on seven assists.
