Michigan in Talks with Transfer Point Guard Averaging Over 17 Points Per Game
When a point guard is averaging over 17 points per game, it’s hard not to consider him as a serious option. Michigan Wolverines head coach Dusty May has been outspoken about his efforts to bring in talent through the transfer portal. After successfully using the portal to transform the Michigan basketball program—leading them to a Big Ten Tournament victory and a Sweet Sixteen appearance—May’s strategy is proven, and he’s expected to continue aggressively pursuing talent for the 2025-26 season.
One of the potential additions could be Charlotte 49ers point guard Nik Graves, according to On3. The 6-foot-3 Graves averaged 17.5 points per game last season and could either back up Tre Donaldson or team up with him as a combo guard.
May recently commented on the timing of the transfer portal during the NCAA Tournament, noting that he’d prefer to be preparing for the Sweet Sixteen rather than focusing on portal recruiting. Even as Michigan gears up to face No. 1 seed Auburn, the Wolverines haven’t been unaffected by the portal. Freshman guard Justin Pippen announced his decision to enter the portal last week.
With the potential for more transfers and NBA Draft declarations, May will likely keep a close eye on the portal as he prepares for his team’s next challenge in Atlanta.
