Ann Arbor — Michigan’s starting unit was scuffling, struggling and in desperate need of a jolt.
The Wolverines’ reserves provided that and much more.
Senior guard Chaundee Brown spearheaded a superb bench effort and a pair of huge game-changing runs as Michigan overcame a 12-point first-half deficit to run past Central Florida, 80-58, Sunday at Crisler Center.
Brown finished with 18 points and four made 3-pointers for Michigan (4-0), which received 49 points from its second unit. Freshman center Hunter Dickinson had 14 points and seven rebounds and freshman forward Terrance Williams II scored 10 off the bench, while senior guard Eli Brooks was the lone starter in double figures with 10 points.
