Hunter Dickinson leads Michigan Wolverines men’s basketball team to 72-58 win over San Diego State

ANN ARBOR (AP) — Hunter Dickinson stayed in school to work on his shot, particularly beyond the 3-point line, and it paid off as he and No. 24 Michigan bounced back from a disappointing showing.

Dickinson scored 23 points, making all three of his 3-pointers, and grabbed 14 rebounds to help the Wolverines beat San Diego State 72-58 Saturday.

Dickinson had four points in a 72-51 loss at North Carolina on Wednesday night.

The 7-foot-1 center had not made or taken more than one shot beyond the arc before the Aztecs left him open and dared him to take his offense outside.

“The opportunity was there and he took full advantage of it,” Wolverines coach Juwan Howard said.
