Michigan Wolverines Head Down to Battle 4 Atlantis

With LeVert sidelined, the Huskies extended their run to 14-3 and seized a 19-15 lead in the closing minutes of the first half.

ABOUT CONNECTICUT (3-0): Following a season in which they posted a 1.03-to-1 assist-to-turnover ratio, the Huskies are at 2.42-to-1 this year after tallying 20 assists versus five turnovers in Saturday’s 83-58 victory over Furman. UConn, playing its bench as Amida Brimah, Shonn Miller, Rodney Purvis and Gibbs all had two fouls, got back even on Omar Calhoun’s three-pointer, and the teams went to the locker rooms with a 34-34 tie.

The 49ers (1-3) are becoming notorious slow-starters, trailing at halftime in all four games this season.

Syracuse shot 54 percent (19 of 35) in the half, connecting on nine 3-pointers. For reference, here are the rebounding totals for Michigan’s big men through three games, with their minutes listed in parenthesis next to the rebounding total: Moritz Wagner, 6 (18), Ricky Doyle, 6 (50), Mark Donnal, 4 (31), D.J.

Valentine had a triple-double of 29 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists, and the Spartans beat Boston College 99-68 Thursday in an opening-round game at the DirectTV Wooden Legacy to give coach Tom Izzo his 500th career victory. Sabonis is the son of Hall of fame inductee Arvydas Sabonis, who played seven seasons with the NBA’s Portland Trailblazers. 3. At left is Syracuse’s Trevor Cooney. To do so we need to take a quick trip down memory lane, all the way back to 1999, then make a few stops on the way back to today.

The results, though, were right only for Syracuse, which overcame an early deficit; they fought off a UConn rally to win, 79-76 in the semifinals of the Battle 4 Atlantis.

Robinson was fouled driving to the basket and calmly made the decisive shots from the foul line.

The victor will face 10th-ranked Gonzaga or No. 25 Texas A&M in Friday’s championship game. In total, five CT players scored in double-digits. Danuel House leads the Aggies averaging 16.7 points and 5.0 rebounds per game.

CT (4-0) and Syracuse (4-0) were among the seven founding members of the basketball-centric Big East in 1979 and combined for 12 conference tournament championships. “But we gotta try to put this one behind us because we’ve got a game tomorrow”. “Our goal was to hold their big three guys to 30 points or less and we were able to do that”, coach Billy Kennedy told the media. Connecticut Huskies forward Daniel Hamilton went there to dominate a basketball game against the Michigan Wolverines. Tipoff is set for 9:30 p.m. inside the Imperial Arena at Atlantis Resort in Nassau, Bahamas. “We can’t stand around and watch Caris the whole game”, he said. Texas A&M is averaging 86.7 points and they are shooting 53.3 percent from the floor while defensively they are allowing 62.2 points and their opponents are shooting 38 percent from the floor. Should Michigan somehow win this tournament, look for it to propel John Beilein and his Michigan men. “At the same time we’re a better team when he’s running a play and being a player”. “I wanted to go to the rim, but I saw the shot clock was going down and I couldn’t go to the rim”.
