Michigan Basketball vs. Minnesota: Game Time, TV Schedule, Live Stream

The Michigan basketball team takes on Minnesota on Wednesday night. Here’s how you can find the game on TV or watch online.

Caris LeVert, a senior on the Michigan basketball team, is apparently “making encouraging progress” with his leg injury but is unlikely to play tonight against the Minnesota Golden Gophers, according to Mark Snyder of the Detroit Free Press.

"“We continue to get encouraging news about Caris,” U-M coach John Beilein said today about his senior co-captain and All-Big Ten candidate. “He’s doing more and more right now, on and off the court. We expect on and off the court, going forward, have no (return) date yet and we’ll see how he tolerates any pain going forward.”"

LeVert has missed Michigan basketball’s last four games — every game in the new year — a stretch that has seen the Wolverines go 2-2. They won both of the home games (versus Penn State and No. 7 Maryland) but lost both of the road games (at No. 22 Purdue and No. 9 Iowa).

Minnesota is a team the Wolverines should beat, even without their leading scorer. They’re favored by a comfortable double-digit line and should have plenty of weapons to get past the 6-12 (0-6 Big Ten) Golden Gophers. Four of Minnesota’s six conference games have featured double-digit losses, and the the two single-digit margins were eight and nine point defeats respectively.

Minnesota has beaten only one power conference opponent — an 89-83 win over Clemson in the Big Ten-ACC Challenge back in November.
