A prominent Michigan basketball player is on the move.
Former Wolverines forward Brandon Johns Jr., who came to Ann Arbor despite being a four-star from East Lansing, never quite solidified his status as a star player for the maize and blue. He excelled when coming off the bench for two years, taking over for Isaiah Livers either in spot duty or when Livers was injured. But he got his turn as a starter in 2021-22, his fourth year with the program, but ultimately was supplanted by freshman Moussa Diabate.
After the season, Johns entered the NCAA transfer portal. And on Wednesday night, it appears he’s heading out of state.
Johns posted to Instagram that he’s heading to the DMV as he’s committing to VCU.
