Michigan basketball releases full 2025-26 Big Ten, non-conference schedule

Michigan men's basketball had its worst year ever two seasons ago under Juwan Howard, a team that went 8-24. But after the Wolverines moved on from Howard, Michigan brought in FAU coach Dusty May to lead the program. Last season, in Year 1 of May, Michigan won the Big Ten Tournament and made it to the Sweet 16, where it ultimately met its match against Auburn.

But for the second year in a row, May went hard in the transfer portal. After losing big men Vlad Goldin and Danny Wolf, Michigan went out and landed a trio of portal big men. Yaxel Lendeborg (UAB), Morez Johnson (Illinois), and Aday Mara (UCLA) will be featured this season in Ann Arbor under the hoop.

While we've known what Michigan's non-conference schedule was going to look like, as of Thursday, the full schedule has been revealed.
