Michigan big man Hunter Dickinson will return for his junior season with the Wolverines, he announced on his Twitter page on Sunday.
Dickinson’s return is a significant development for Juwan Howard’s program, which had a turbulent regular season despite the play of their star big man.
Dickinson averaged 18.6 points, 8.6 rebounds and 1.5 blocks per game his season and is likely to be the favorite for Big Ten Player of the Year heading into next season.
Dickinson’s return keeps Michigan in the mix as one of the contenders for the national championship next year.
