Some photos from Michigan basketball’s summer workouts.

Notably, junior center Aday Mara has made it to campus and is getting work in with his new teammates. The 7-foot-3 UCLA transfer is a native of Spain and remained in his home country for weeks amidst a State Department pause on F1 student visas.

Mara averaged 6.4 points, 4 rebounds and 1 assists per game for the Bruins last season.

Michigan landed its first commitment of the 2026 class in 7-foot-3 center Marcus Moller from Denmark.

The 7-foot-2 center is 18 years old and spent last season playing for Unicaja Baloncesto in the Spanish Tercera FEB — a professional basketball club based in Spain.

Möller competed with Denmark in the FIBA U18 EuroBasket in 2024, where he averaged 13.1 points and 7.4 rebounds.

Moller took an official visit to Michigan this summer, and that helped seal the deal in his recruitment. He also visited SMU, Colorado State and Oklahoma State.

“I really felt a special connection with Michigan,” Moller told Rivals. “The staff, the players, and people around the team fit my values and carry a good vibe. I will be surrounded by athletes and people who play to win and develop.”

A look at Michigan’s roster for the upcoming season.

New Michigan cornerback commit Dorian Barney implores fans to follow his Instagram account as he seeks 10,000 followers.

Rivals’ Chad Simmons has the latest on four-star defensive lineman Deuce Geralds.

2027 four-star Miami cornerback commit Jaylyn Jones will visit other schools, including Michigan.

Quote Of The Day

“I can’t wait to be a part of Michigan and represent this program with pride. I’m ready to work, compete, and give everything I’ve got for the maize and blue. Big things are coming, and this is special. Go Blue! Go Michigan!”
