Another take on Michigan-Wisconsin basketball game: Only DeShawn Sims played well

By AnnArbor.com Staff

Senior DeShawn Sims was 9-of-14 shooting and had 13 rebounds in the Michigan basketball team's 54-48 loss to Wisconsin on Wednesday. Outside of Sims, Dylan Burkhardt of UMhoops.com writes, there was very little for the Wolverines.

Burkhardt's take:

The rest of the Wolverines must not have found the trip to Madison worth their time. They combined to shoot 8 of 33 for a dreadful 24%. Role players aren’t supposed to play well on the road, but performances like Zack Novak’s 0-6, Stu Douglass’ 2-8, or the one point that the bench mustered just aren’t good enough to win games.

Douglass has been awful all season long. Talk about a sophomore slump. Novak hasn't been a lot better, although he's doing more on the other end of the floor plus some rebounding. I don't know what Beilein is not doing, but these guys clearly aren't getting better as the season goes along. Not good.
