Michigan Basketball: Wolverines’ projected 2020-21 starting lineup

Livers is the four man

This past season, Livers was clearly the Wolverines’ best player when he was healthy. He finished the season as Michigan basketball’s leading scorer with 12.9 points per game, tying Simpson. He also shot 40 percent from 3-point range.

That along with his ability to create his own shot, post up, play the three or four and defend multiple positions make Livers both extremely valuable and an interesting pro prospect.

While I still get the feeling he will declare for the draft, with the possibility to return, unless he wants to bet on himself in the G-League, he would be better suited returning for another season.

If he does, and Wagner comes back, along with Todd and Christopher, choosing a starting five will be really tough. But as Juwan Howard said when he took the job, position-less basketball is coming to Ann Arbor and the 2020-21 season will be the best example yet, as you can see with our projected starting center.
