Michigan lost a big potential piece of its 2018 men's basketball team Saturday when center Moritz Wagner declared for the NBA draft.
From the Player's Tribune:
When I moved to Ann Arbor a few years ago, I knew I had to travel pretty light — but there was no chance I wasn’t bringing my Dirk poster with me. So I carefully folded it up … packed it in my suitcase … and then, once I got to campus, one of the first things I did was put it right back on my bedroom wall.
And now it’s 2018 — which means that poster has been with me for almost seven whole years. For almost every step along the way of my basketball journey. And I’m excited to tell you that, today, it’s time for me to fold it up again, and take my next big step.
Wagner averaged 14 points and 7 rebounds for the Wolverines last season.
