Michigan's Eli Brooks suffers nose injury at Purdue; 'he still looks handsome'

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Michigan basketball does not yet know the extent of Eli Brooks' nose injury.

But it doesn't appear to be too serious, judging by coach Juwan Howard's tone.

“Well, I haven’t had a chance to talk to him," Howard said, "but I’ll tell you one thing — he still looks handsome.”

Brooks, the Wolverines' starting shooting guard, collided face-first with Purdue's Nojel Eastern near the beginning of the second half of Michigan's 71-63 win over the Boilermakers on Saturday afternoon.
