When former Michigan basketball star Ignas Brazdeikis worked out with the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday, he got some advice from his former coach, John Beilein, ahead of Thursday's NBA draft.
Beilein, who left U-M in May to become the head coach of the Cavaliers, told Brazdeikis to remain level-headed and to continue being him.
"Don't ever change who you are, keep doing the same things you were doing at Michigan and it'll take you to a lot of places," Brazdeikis said Beilein told him.
