Michigan basketball (13-0) wasted little time reasserting their non-conference dominance, this time against a helpless Central Michigan team. The #2 ranked Wolverines, behind a double-double from Trey Burke, did their thing and came away with a rock solid 88-73 win over the Chippewas.
How Michigan Won
The Wolverines erased any notion of having to shake off some Christmas break rust. By the time the first tv timeout kicked in, John Beilein’s well-rested team was 10-13 from the field and had the visiting Chippewas on the ropes.
Trey Burke
Playing without Tim Hardaway Jr, who was out with a right ankle injury, Michigan never skipped a beat as they led 46-29 at the half on the strength of 20-35 shooting (57.1%) from the field. Central, playing at a frenetic pace, shot just 11-32 (34.4%) in the opening frame.
Caris LeVert stepped in for Hardaway with his first career start and scored 9 points in the 1st half.
