Michigan head coach Juwan Howard is reinstating Zavier Simpson after suspending his point guard Monday and forcing him to miss a game against Nebraska earlier this week.

"After speaking with [Michigan Athletic Director] Warde [Manuel] before today's practice and after my media availability, we agreed to lift Zavier's suspension." Howard said in a statement released by the school. "I am looking forward to moving on from this. Anything further will continue to be handled within."

Simpson will be able to rejoin the Wolverines when they face No. 25 Rutgers on Saturday afternoon.
