There were some good things that happened for Michigan basketball against Minnesota Sunday. Unfortunately, the bad outweighed good and the Wolverines lost a game they easily could have won.
While many will be quick to blame the defense, the offense also didn’t hold up its end of the bargain. After Eli Brooks connected on a 3-pointer to put Michigan basketball in front 65-64, U-M couldn’t buy a bucket and Minnesota ended things on an 11-2 run to win 75-67.
Brooks finished the game 1-of-7 from 3-point range. As a team, the Wolverines were 10-of-28, which most of the time, will be good enough to win.
