Five Key Plays: Michigan 101, Cleveland State 53

Michigan kicked off the 2024-25 season with a win on Monday, dispatching Cleveland State with style. The game wasn’t particularly competitive, with the Wolverines doubling up the Vikings late, but the first game of the year deserves the Five Key Plays treatment.

In this week’s edition of Five Key Plays, we break down some notable trends from the first game including Danny Wolf (offensively and defensively), Tre Donaldson’s efficient passing, Will Tschetter’s big dunk and more.
