As part of our pre-season coverage ahead of the college basketball season, Maize n Brew will be rolling out player profiles on every scholarship player on the 2023-24 Michigan men’s basketball roster. We’ll take a look at what they did in previous seasons and project how much of an impact we think they’ll have this season.

Let’s kick things off with grad transfer Olivier Nkamhoua.

Before coming to Michigan

Nkamhoua began his collegiate career with the Tennessee Volunteers, playing four seasons under Rick Barnes. The 6-foot-8 forward was the only Volunteer to start all 36 games of the 2022-23 season.
