Coaches: “Playing off 2 feet” allows you time to make good decisions. But “playing off 1 foot,” as well, creates indecision on part of defenders. Watch how @AlabamaMBB @LabaronPhilon keeps all three of @umichbball Top 15 NBA Draft picks guessing. @coach_paint

NEWS: 2027 Top-25 overall recruit Davion Thompson is down to four schools and will announce his college commitment on June 10th, he told @Rivals.

I don’t think his problem is scoring. It’s can he effect the game in the defensive side of the floor. Is he going to be able to score consistently with out a reliable three ball to start his career? He is going to score a lot a high clip in his career

[Fran Fraschilla @franfraschilla]

I am an “eye test” guy, but these statistics are interesting.
Dybantsa 25.5 pts. 51% FG
Durant 25.8 pts. 47% FG
Flagg 19.2 pts. 48% FG
Tatum 16.8 pts. 45% FG
Edwards 19.1 pts. 40% FG

@BYUMBB AJ had one of the two “30-10-10” triple-doubles in @Big12Conference history.

[Brice Marich @BriceMarich]

Incoming #Michigan 4⭐️ PF and McDonald’s All-American, Quinn Costello continues to look like one of the best shooters in the country via his IG.

Don’t see too many 6-foot-10 big men that can shoot like that.

[Josh hack @HoopsHacks]

@BriceMarich Not having Trey on here is really bad…

‼️‼️‼️‼️〽️〽️〽️

Good for the kid!

[Brice Marich @BriceMarich]

#Michigan 7’3 center signee Marcus Moller announces he’s cancer free on his IG.

Amazing news.

[Morez Johnson Jr. @morezjohnsonJr]

AGTG🙏🏾 Let’s do it

[Brice Marich @BriceMarich]

Dusty May has coached some ELITE big men since arriving to #Michigan and has another in 6’10 skilled PF Quinn Costello.

- @247Sports’ No. 45 overall ranked prospect in the 2026 class

- State champion this season

- McDonald’s All-American 🍔

Source: It’s expected that Baylor forward Tounde Yessefou will withdraw his name from the NBA draft and enter the @TransferPortal

Yessefou averaged 17.9 points and 6 rebounds as a freshman at Baylor.

Significant Big 12 news.

[Samad Hines @Samad_Hines]

2026 Michigan commit Brandon McCoy Jr. can continue to impress NBA scouts given the opportunity with his elite defensive instincts — very disruptive with his hands, length at 6-foot-5, a 6-foot-11 wingspan, plays with such high competitiveness, explosiveness, and athleticism.

[Josh hack @HoopsHacks]

These 2 play nothing alike are we aware of that? 😂😂😂

[Jonathan Givony @DraftExpress]

A reminder of how underappreciated Zach Edey was pre-draft: a physical outlier in measurements and athletic testing, two-time National Player of the Year, a generational producer, now unsurprisingly a huge steal for Memphis. The public perception of his NBA outlook was way off.

[Josh hack @HoopsHacks]

This what makes Dusty such a dangerous recruiter he truly wants the kid to make their own decisions.

[Isaac Trotter @Isaac__Trotter]

Michigan beast big man Morez Johnson Jr. says he is letting his agents handle the intel gathering ahead of his stay-or-go decision.

“Dusty (May) been very supportive. Not pressured me to come back at all. He wants me to attack this thing two feet in, until otherwise.”

[Morez Johnson Jr. @morezjohnsonJr]

@Yaxel_Lendeborg 👀

[Josh hack @HoopsHacks]

@tyler_rucker More worried he is going to land in OKC. They don’t need more ready made rotation players

[Hoop Herald @TheHoopHerald]

It’s the little things

Young Hoopers take notes

[Josh hack @HoopsHacks]

Danny wolf had some of the best playmaking skill we will see at that size

[Evan Sidery @esidery]

Hannes Steinbach’s closest physical traits comparison is Danny Wolf:

Steinbach: 6’10.25” barefoot, 248 pounds, 7’2.25” wingspan, 9’ standing reach

Wolf: 6’10.5” barefoot, 252 pounds, 7’2.25” wingspan, 9’1” standing reach

[Jonathan Givony @DraftExpress]

Michigan's Yaxel Lendeborg measured 6'8.75 barefoot and 241 pounds at the NBA Draft Combine, with a 7'3.25 wingspan and 9'0.5 standing reach.

No surprises after last year's Combine, but still outstanding dimensions for a player who slid seamlessly from the 3 to the 5 this season.

[Josh hack @HoopsHacks]

Hope Peterson is there but I highly doubt it

[Stacey King @Stacey21King]

The Basketball Gods finally delivered!! Top 4 is where you want to be in this draft!! Bulls are going to get a stud and It’s going to be either Wilson or Peterson but my gut tells me Wilson and Boozer go 2 and 3 and Peterson falls to Bulls at 4 which is the big guard and shooter they need to compliment Giddys passing skills. But you can’t go wrong with any of the top 4 IMO! I’m just happy Bulls Nation has got something to be excited about!!!

[Josh hack @HoopsHacks]

@livvenjoyer He is 23 will be 24 by the time his rookie year starts. I don’t think age should make someone furious. I get saying wish we would have went this way. But he is a plug and play players for probably 8-10 years

[Josh hack @HoopsHacks]

I don’t understand this. Yaxel is the Protoss dribble pass shoot archetype. Most likely an instant rotation player. You already have a star, it would be a good move for the Mavs.

[MFFL NATION @NationMffl]

Rankings of how’d I feel about who the Mavs take with the 9th pick:

Ecstatic:
Keaton Wagler, Mikel Brown Jr.

Happy:
Labaron Philon Jr.

Satisfied:
Kingston Flemings, Darius Acuff Jr.

Annoyed, but there’s potential:
Brayden Burries

Furious:
Nate Ament, Yaxel Lendeborg
