Austin Davis has never started a game for Michigan basketball before.
But the fifth-year senior center is now the most experienced big man on the roster, and just last week, forward Isaiah Livers named Davis as one of the team's five starters if the season began right now.
The Wolverines graduated starting center Jon Teske, and backup center Colin Castleton transferred to Florida during the offseason. That leaves Davis as U-M's only scholarship center with playing experience. And that reality has already forced Davis to adjust how he interacts with his teammates.
