Michigan battled back from the early deficit to trail by just one point at the half, but again started poorly in the second, falling behind by nine. On what was a poor shooting evening for the Wolverines from long range, Aubrey Dawkins helped spark the offense, going 3-of-3 from beyond the arc. He scored 11 points and pulled down seven rebounds, while Muhammad-Ali Abdur-Rahkman led the team with 19 points and Derrick Walton scored 16.
