ANN ARBOR (AP) — Three days after winning its first national title since 1989, Michigan has started retooling its roster for next season.

J.P. Estrella confirmed on Instagram Thursday that he is transferring from Tennessee and joining the Wolverines. ESPN was first to report Estrella’s move.

A 6-foot-11 forward, Estrella averaged 10 points and 5.4 rebounds last season for the Volunteers, who lost to Michigan 95-62 in the Elite Eight. Estrella, who appeared in 33 games and made 13 starts this season, had seven points and seven rebounds in that game.

Estrella will graduate from Tennessee in the spring and has two years of eligibility remaining. He redshirted in 2024-25 due to a foot injury.

Coach Dusty May has had success acquiring frontcourt players through the transfer portal in his two-plus seasons at Michigan.

Yaxel Lendeborg has exhausted his collegiate eligibility, while Morez Johnson Jr. and Aday Mara could opt for the NBA draft.

Cadeau to return

Elliot Cadeau, who was named the Final Four’s most outstanding player after helping Michigan to its first national title since 1989, announced on social media Thursday night that he will be back with the Wolverines.

The point guard said in an Instagram reel “let’s do it again” after his return was first reported by ESPN.

Cadeau tied a season high with 19 points in Michigan’s 69-63 victory over UConn in the national championship game. He averaged 10.5 points and 5.9 assists in his first season with the program after two years at North Carolina.
