Michigan basketball's first game in the 2021 Big Ten men's basketball tournament took an unexpected turn midway through the second half.
During a timeout, head coach Juwan Howard was ejected from the game after a kerfuffle with the Maryland coaching staff. Both sides appeared to exchange words, with the situation eventually escalating as Howard had to be held back multiple times by members of his staff.
It was the first time Howard has been ejected as a head coach — yet the Wolverines were undeterred. Michigan led by 10 at the time of Howard's departure and held onto that advantage.
