Michigan's Juwan Howard fired up after adding transfers Chaundee Brown, Nojel Eastern

Michigan basketball hasn't officially announced the additions of Wake Forest guard Chaundee Brown and Purdue wing Nojel Eastern, but that didn't stop coach Juwan Howard from gushing about them.

Howard discussed both newcomers in a Twitter video released Wednesday night by Big Ten Network. Since it's an NCAA violation to openly talk about unsigned players, Brown and Eastern have likely signed.

On May 14, Eastern's transfer came as a shock. He entered the portal 48 hours prior and previously declared for the NBA draft twice. It's unclear if he will be forced to sit out the 2020-21 season or gain immediate eligibility.
