How athletic is Michigan? Because that’s how you beat Nova.
Nova struggles with athleticism and Quick guards ( Shamorie Ponds), if Michigan athleticism is legit then they have a chance.
Not crazy athletic, but they have some athletes. Matthews is long and athletic; Simpson's undersized, but he can be a bulldog defensively; MAAR's got some athleticism; Wagner is versatile and good athleticism for his size (not a big shot blocker though).
They're gonna put pressure on Nova with their defense. The Cats aren't hitting anything close to 18 threes against them. Teams are shooting like 22% from three for the Tournament against Michigan.
