McCoy Out, Wolverines Adapt | Michigan Wolverines Basketball News

Michigan’s overseas tour ended with a bittersweet note: a 1-2 exhibition record and a devastating ACL injury to five-star freshman Brandon McCoy Jr., who’s out for the season. Despite the blow, coach Mike Boynton Jr. called the trip “90% successful,” praising McCoy’s character and resilience. Ricky Liburd, expected to be a key contributor, is now in rehab after a minor hip procedure but remains on track for the season. Starting center Moustapha Thiam, who sat out two games after a precautionary exit, is cleared to play and poised to be a major force. With McCoy sidelined, the load shifts to Liburd and Thiam, and the team’s experience abroad should help them adapt — setting the stage for a strong, resilient season ahead.
