McCoy Injury Rattles Michigan's Tour | Michigan Wolverines Basketball News

Michigan’s European tour hit a major bump when top recruit Brandon McCoy Jr. went down with a suspected lower-leg injury just 20 seconds into their final exhibition game—forcing him to exit and raising serious concerns about his availability for the upcoming season. A key piece of the new coaching staff’s rebuilding plan, McCoy had already started all three prior games and was expected to anchor the backcourt alongside returning guards. His commitment to the program after the coaching change was a major win, and now his health hangs in the balance as Michigan narrowly won the game 84-81. The tour has been plagued by injuries—including another player, Moustapha Thiam—and forced younger players into bigger roles, adding pressure as the team prepares for real-season games this winter.
