Three Michigan basketball rookies set for 2025 NBA Summer League
Michigan Wolverines basketball has three former players that are expected to compete in the 2025 NBA Summer League, which begins July 5 in San Francisco. Here’s a breakdown.
Hunter Dickinson, New Orleans Pelicans
Former Michigan center Hunter Dickinson spent the final two seasons of his college career at Kansas, but he left a strong legacy with the Wolverines, becoming one of 11 players in program history to earn first-team All-Big Ten honors in multiple seasons and helping the team win five NCAA Tournament games.
The 7-foot-2 big man signed a two-way deal with the Pelicans after going undrafted in the 2025 NBA Draft.

Vladislav Goldin, Miami Heat

The Wolverines’ leading scorer last season has a great chance to prove himself during upcoming games, with the Heat set to begin play July 5 in San Francisco, before traveling to Las Vegas July 11.
