Michigan basketball's Jett Howard seems to have avoided the worst with his ankle injury.
It was a worrisome moment at Crisler Center on Sunday, when the freshman landed awkwardly on his left ankle late in the first half of Michigan's 60-56 win over Minnesota and immediately went to the floor. Howard remained down for a few minutes as he was tended to by athletic trainers before he was helped off the court without putting any weight on it.
Howard was ruled out for the rest of the game and emerged from the tunnel to the team's bench midway through the second half wearing a walking boot.
