Five way-too-early lineup stats, trends and combos to know

November 22, 2024 by UM Hoops

Michigan won its third game of the homestand on Thursday night and now heads south to Florida for the Fort Myers Tip-Off. In the next month, the Wolverines will face six consecutive high-major opponents, starting with Virginia Tech on Monday night.

The Wolverines have generally played well. They are 4-1 and have climbed a dozen spots on KenPom, with a disappointing loss to Wake Forest and a solid win over TCU. Despite the positive early-season vibe, Dusty May wouldn’t hesitate to tell you that he’s still figuring out his team’s identity.

One essential part of that is the rotation. May and his staff consistently gave rotation minutes to 11 players throughout the three-game homestand, and the Wolverines are on track to play their bench more minutes than any Michigan team in decades.

The deep bench is a big part of Michigan’s early-season success, but it also leaves a lot of data points to sort through when figuring out what works and what doesn’t. We dove into the lineup and on/off data through five games to assess some way-too-early lineup stats, trends, and combinations.
