Danny Wolf Departs from Michigan to Enter 2025 NBA Draft

So, uh, Danny Wolf is packing up his bags and waving bye-bye to Michigan, tossing his name into the 2025 NBA draft hat. Talk about a leap, huh? And here’s the kicker – he’s pegged to be a first-rounder, no less. This past season? The guy’s been racking up some serious numbers: 13.2 points, nearly double digits in rebounds at 9.7, 3.6 dishes, and even swatted 1.4 off the boards. Not too shabby, eh?

Now, Danny had a little chat (or maybe it was a big one, who knows?) and basically, he was like, “The season kinda blew my mind, in a good way.” You ever have that where you totally jump into something, shiny and new, and you’re like, “What have I done?” Yeah, he was there. But bam – Dusty May, the coach with a playbook that seemed more like a bag of magic tricks, came in and made it happen. And Danny? He got to just… be Danny.

Oh, oh, WAIT – get this: Danny’s a human skyscraper stretching up to 7 feet but wears all the hats – literally (or not, depending on how you feel about hats). Point guard? Yep. Power forward? Sure thing. Center? Of course. Dude used to roll with Yale before jumping to the Wolverines, by the way.

And about this summer training thing? They were mixing it up like a weird science experiment or a culinary adventure with two 7-footers. Danny and Vlad Goldin – another tall dude – had Dusty diving into NBA footage like it was some kind of film noir marathon. They watched the big guys – Lauri Markkanen, Alperen Sengun, Karl-Anthony Towns next to the giant Rudy Gobert. Danny had a few, um, let’s say “what the heck is this gonna look like?” moments but Dusty was all jazzed up and had a vision – like this crystal ball but make it basketball. And y’know what? It totally did the trick.
