The Juwan Howard-less Wolverines have a game upcoming against Memphis in the Battle 4 Atlantis Tournament; however, in other U-M hoops news, former Michigan basketball star (and current Kansas Jayhawks center) Hunter Dickinson just got roasted by famed actor Samuel L Jackson.

Over the summer, the top player of the Juwan Howard era of Michigan basketball — Hunter Dickinson — decided to hit the transfer portal and head to Kansas. Now, just a few games into his tenure in the Big 12, Dickinson continues to stand out, even catching the eye of famed actor Samuel L Jackson.

“Damn, this Dickenson MF on (Kansas hoops) flops like he’s on a Soccer Pitch!” — yep, that’s what Jackson had to say about Hunter Dickinson on Wednesday. Still, the Jayhawks still came away with an impressive 69-60 victory over the Tennessee Volunteers, so I guess Dickinson got the last laugh here.

Regardless, Michigan basketball fans are all over Jackson’s tweet and are eating up the anti-Hunter Dickinson buzz on their timelines right now.
