Wilson ran through the mistakes. His mistakes. A missed lay-up. A poor box out.
“I missed a bunny,” Wilson said, after Michigan’s season ended Thursday night in a 69-68 loss to Oregon in the Sweet 16 of the NCAA tournament at the Sprint Center. “I gave up an offensive rebound on the free throw. That’s four easy points, right there.”
