Austin Davis poised to shoulder larger load for Michigan basketball

Austin Davis has never started a game, has never played more than 18 minutes in an outing and has never scored more than 11 points in his 65 appearances at Michigan.

All those streaks could come to an end in 2020-21 as the Wolverines put more playing time and responsibilities on the fifth-year senior center’s shoulders, including his right one that underwent surgery in late April.

"It's been a long summer,” Davis said earlier this week. “(My shoulder) is feeling great now. Back to full-go and everything. It's been a long road to recovery. I'm very thankful for athletic trainer Alex (Wong), for the doctors that worked on me.
