The Michigan Wolverines were without star Caris LeVert for today’s game against the Penn State Nittany Lions. Ultimately, John Beilen’s squad was able to overcome the loss of a key player, winning 79-56.
Following the game, Beilein discussed the injury to his top star, leaving more questions than answers.
Beilein says U-M doesn't know the specifics of LeVert's lower left leg injury. Says more info is needed. Injury occurred vs Illinois.

Beilein was asked if LeVert has had X-rays. Responded that he's had every test and evaluations are continuing. Didn't reveal X-ray results.

Well, thanks for that, coach.
LeVert, who is no stranger to injury concerns, is averaging 17.6 points, 5.4 rebounds and 5.2 assists for the 12-3 Wolverines.
For Michigan’s sake, let’s hope the injury is not a serious one and that LeVert is able to return to the court sooner rather than later.
