Oakland’s loss could end up being Michigan’s much-needed gain.

With Charles Matthews and Jordan Poole going pro and the realistic possibility Ignas Brazdeikis could follow suit, the Wolverines could be left replacing their top three scorers and perimeter players.

One possible option is grad transfer guard Jaevin Cumberland, who originally announced in March he would finish his career with the Golden Grizzlies before having a change of heart and entering the transfer portal last month.

Cumberland told The Detroit News on Thursday he visited Michigan on Monday and Tuesday and left Ann Arbor with a scholarship offer.
