Hunter Dickinson wasted little time putting on a show in his return to the nation’s capital.
The sophomore center scored the first seven points of the game and set the tone for No. 6 Michigan’s 77-49 win over Prairie View A&M Saturday in the inaugural Coaches vs. Racism event at Entertainment & Sports Arena.
Dickinson tallied his first double-double of the season with 11 points and 10 rebounds for Michigan (2-0), which shot 45.5% (25-for-55) from the field and made 10 3-pointers but struggled at the line again by missing 15 of its 32 free-throw attempts.
Fifth-year senior guard Eli Brooks led another balanced attack with 15 points.
