Over the past decade, no Michigan basketball team has started more than two seniors.
This year could be different as coach Juwan Howard could potentially roll out a starting lineup that includes a quartet of fifth- and fourth-year players.
“I would say the strength of our team is we have experience, on all levels, at all positions,” Howard said this week.
Howard lost a pair of foundational pieces in guard Zavier Simpson and center Jon Teske from last year’s team, which had its highs and lows. But looking past their departures, Michigan has a roster stocked with upperclassmen.
