Michigan Basketball: The Ultimate Michigan Starting Five
By David Cuff
Shooting Guard: Cazzie Russell-
Russell may be the best player in Michigan college basketball history. He averaged 27.1 points per game during his four years at the school which is still a record to this day. He was a three time All-American with two of those times being on the first team. In 1966 he was named the National Player of the Year in college basketball. He led Michigan to back-to-back final four appearances including a National Title game appearance in 1965.
