ANAHEIM, Calif. — All cameras were focused on Ignas Brazdeikis, one day before Michigan basketball's game against Texas Tech in the Sweet 16.

Brazdeikis, sitting near the middle of the Wolverines' locker room, has said all season he lives for moments such as these. He welcomes the spotlight, maybe even craves it.

Wednesday afternoon, he held court as he was bombarded with questions on all sorts of topics. And at one point, Brazdeikis was asked about Texas Tech's unique "no-middle" defensive scheme.
