College Park, Md. — Michigan will be without one of its key pieces once again as it looks to keep pace in the Big Ten race.
Redshirt junior wing Charles Matthews will be sidelined for the second straight game and sit out Sunday’s contest at Maryland with a right ankle injury.
Matthews traveled with the team but didn’t participate in any of the pregame warm-ups. He wasn't wearing a walking boot on his right foot like he did earlier this week and was dressed in sweats and Jordans on the bench.
Michigan coach John Beilein said Friday that Matthews has been diagnosed with a “very slight” ankle sprain and his status remains day-to-day.
