Michigan Basketball: Which freshmen will need to step up this season?

Although Michigan Basketball had a spectacular 2017-18 season that included a Big Ten Tournament title and a trip to the National Championship game, they’re a completely different team now.

Mo Wagner, Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman, and Duncan Robinson have all departed, leaving some big shoes to fill. Charles Matthews, Jordan Poole, and Isaiah Livers will all have to step up and take on more minutes, but so will the incoming freshmen.

Michigan’s 2018 recruiting class is ranked No. 12 in the country, and it’s the best class Beilein’s had since the star studded 2012 class.
