Longtime Michigan basketball commit, signee decommits

One thing seemed a sure thing for Michigan basketball, regardless of the changes to the coaching staff. That was 2024 class commit Christian Anderson Jr., who has been pledged to the maize and blue for three years and was a vocal Wolverine all the way through — seemingly unwavering.

Yet, with Dusty May coming in to replace Juwan Howard, a little more than wavering has taken place for the longtime commit.

It was revealed late Friday night that Anderson, a four-star point guard, was opting out of his commitment to Michigan basketball. The prolific shooter had signed with the program at the earliest opportunity.

There’s no indication whether he remains open to returning to the fold once May and company get settled.

With his departure, Michigan has one signee, Durral Brooks, who has also expressed skepticism whether he’ll remain in the class. Khani Rooths, who hadn’t signed, decommitted, but said he will still consider the Wolverines.
