Michigan basketball had a star-studded 2021 class which was headlined by two five-star freshmen: Caleb Houstan and Moussa Diabate. When Juwan Howard signed them, it propelled the Wolverines to have the third-ranked class according to 247Sports composite.
Both saw just one season in Ann Arbor before they decided to forgo their three remaining seasons of eligibility to enter into the 2022 NBA draft — which is Thursday, June 23.
After their first year with the Wolverines, Houstan averaged 10 points-per-game, four rebounds-per-game, and shot 35% from 3. The big man, Diabate, averaged nine points-per-game, six rebounds-per-game, and shot 54% from the field.
After going thru the draft process, and talking with scouts, family, friends, and coaches they felt they were ready for the NBA draft. Depending on the sites you visit, or people you may listen to, everyone has their own opinion on if the former Wolverines are ready to make the jump after just one collegiate season.
Here are a few sites that have their final predictions out on where Houstan and Diabate will go — or if they will go at all.
