Michigan Basketball vs. Northern Kentucky: Interior Defense will be Key

Between a plethora of injuries and Spike Albrecht electing to end his playing days early because of bad hips, Michigan has gone through a lot this season.

The Wolverines are 7-3 but just hanging in there. D.J. Wilson is out of his walking boot but won’t be available tonight against Northern Kentucky. Derrick Walton Jr. however will be good to go after missing the last three games with an ankle injury.

The real key to tonight’s game though won’t be shooting the lights out from deep or getting the score up into the 80s. The real key will come on the other side of the court where Northern Kentucky is going to try to take advantage of Jalen Billups down low.
