Practice starts for the Michigan men’s basketball on September 26, but until then, the Wolverines have been working on sharpening individual skills. Associate head coach Phil Martelli spoke about that in a recent appearance on the Defend The Block podcast with Brian Boesch, comparing this summer prep to academic prep.
“Juwan (Howard) does a really good job of knocking out some of that time so we can do individual skills,” Martelli said. “I’d like to see us shoot even more...we’re getting there. This right now, if you think of it as individual, each of these players is going through tutoring.
