Michigan's Johns finds his confidence and his comfort level

Sometimes a player can get in his own way with bouts of self-doubt.

At points during his Michigan career, junior forward Brandon Johns Jr. would’ve fit that description. But now?

“I think my confidence is at an all-time high,” Johns said Thursday.

That’s a good sign for the Wolverines heading into Sunday’s Sweet 16 matchup against Florida State in Indianapolis. And it has shown in Johns’ recent performances after moving into the starting lineup with senior forward Isaiah Livers out with a foot injury.

Against LSU, Johns was assertive from the start.
