Michigan Players in the NBA

It is easy to forget that our favorite athletes have a lot going on in their lives outside of the sport. I appreciate that the Detroit News shared this story about Duncan Robinson’s brother and his battle with mental illness.

This already made me feel super old, but I will probably keel over on the spot when Caris retires. Our baby boy is all grown up! :face_holding_back_tears:

I did a double take on that comment and wasn’t sure that was right. How exactly are they linked?

apparently he’s an assistant coach for the hawks!

Who will be the better Michigan shot blocker?

  • Aday Mara
  • Ekpe Udoh

Best shot blocker in the NBA or at Michigan?

Are we measuring by total blocks or something?

I think you’re suggesting a level of statistical rigor that will not be involved here

At Michigan. Was just thinking about how Aday is probably the best pure shot blocker we’ve had since Ekpe

The best shot blocker we have ever had at Michigan is Brent Petway if we are doing vibal metrics
