Newsstand: The moment Michigan big man Danny Wolf was drafted by the Brooklyn Nets

Tweets Of The Day
Michigan forward/center Danny Wolf was selected No. 27 overall in the first round of the 2025 NBA Draft by the Brooklyn Nets. He’s the Wolverines’ 12th first-round choice in the last 13 years, leading all Big Ten schools during that span.
Watch NBA commissioner Adam Silver announce Wolf’s selection, and the Michigan product’s family emotionally react.
Michigan landed two commitments Wednesday — from four-star wide receiver Zion Robinson and four-star offensive lineman Marky Walbridge — and now ranks No. 15 overall in the On3 Industry team recruiting rankings.
Former Michigan cornerback Jourdan Lewis says his “favorite moment ever” as a Wolverine fan was Blake Corum’s overtime touchdown run in the College Football Playoff semifinal win over Alabama in 2023.

Quote Of The Day
“He’s really a point center — a ball-handler and an initiator of offense. You don’t say this very often about a seven-footer, but he’s a pick-and-roll ball-handler. He operated in pick-and-roll situations with Vlad Goldin, who transferred in to Michigan. But working with Vlad[islav] Goldin, I don’t think I’ve ever seen in college two seven-footers run pick and rolls with each other, but it was really successful under [head coach] Dusty May.
“Where he’s really effective is as a passer. Now, he did turn it over a fair amount. He had 120 turnovers — that was seventh-most in the NCAA. But he delivered a lot, as well. Really good footwork, just an excellent basketball player that knows how to play. The only thing is he’s not an elite NBA athlete, but he gets a lot of things done out on the floor.”
