Spoke with a team source about game two...got some good information and will get more soon.

For starters, Michigan ran away with the game today, winning 95-62. It should have been more too, word is Michigan missed 15-20 free throws or so.

The gym had no AC and it was pushing 100 degrees so everyone struggled a bit with conditioning however these were the player standouts.

Hunter Dickinson - "Just so damn good". He is really good. Going to be dominate this year. Didn't score much today, just nine points, but had double digit rebounds as well as four steals and three blocks.

Jett Howard - Knocked down four of his eight attempts from three today, showcasing his marksmanship and scoring potential. He is going to be really good for Michigan, playing primarily at the three. Finished with 16 points on 6-of-11 shooting and not much else.

Jaelin Llewellyn - Managing the game incredibly well. Going to be exactly what Michigan needs at PG. Facilitates the offense and can get tough buckets. Led Michigan in scoring with 18 points on 5-of-10 shooting and 7-of-8 from the free throw line, to go with three assists.

Terrance Williams II - Shot well from the field (4-of-5) but really struggling from the free throw line (0-of-7). Other than that, Williams did what Williams does. Finished with nine points, six rebounds, and four assists.

Kobe Bufkin - He is going to be really good and the staff has full faith in him. He has struggled putting the ball in the basket on this trip, but continues to be aggressive. Finished with five points and six rebounds.

All five starters played roughly 20-25 minutes, and clearly outplayed the U22 Olympiacos' team.

As for bench players, the standouts were Isaiah Barnes, Dug McDaniel, Tarris Reed, and Jace Howard.

Isaiah Barnes - A really good sight to see here. Finished with 10 points, five rebounds, two assists, and a couple of steals in a really good performance. He came in and threw down a monster dunk. Going to get some minutes this year as a "really athletic three".

Dug McDaniel - He is going to have to have some sort of role, simply due to depth issues at the position, but Dug is ready for it. He finished with 10 points and three assists for Michigan. Very happy to see this performance from McDaniel.

Tarris Reed - Was told that he looked real good today. Offensively he is ready to give people some trouble in the Big 10, just needs to continue to develop defensively. Should be a great player in due time in Ann Arbor.
