The Wolverines continue to receive strong consideration from some of the top players in the country.

Joshua Christopher, a five-star guard from Bellflower (Calif.) Mayfair, listed Michigan among his top five schools along with Missouri, Arizona State, UCLA and Kentucky, which he has called his "dream school."

Christopher (6-foot-4, 200 pounds) is ranked the No. 9 overall recruit in the 2020 class, according to the 247Sports Composite. He is also rated the No. 1 shooting guard in the nation and No. 5 prospect in California.

Christopher was the first player Juwan Howard offered two weeks after he was named head coach at his alma mater.
