Caris LeVert’s career as a Michigan Wolverine came to an official and premature end Tuesday with the announcement from John Beilein and LeVert himself that he would be shut down for the rest of the season. This announcement seemed long overdue as LeVert had missed almost every game since injuring his lower leg in the Big Ten opener against Illinois this season. His only return was a limited, clearly-not-100% role coming off the bench against Purdue.
This is sad news for Michigan fans. LeVert was an electric player that at his best was easily the best man on the court.
