Michigan’s Danny Wolf Drafted by Brooklyn Nets

  • On June 25, 2025, at the Barclays Center in New York, the Brooklyn Nets selected Michigan power forward Danny Wolf, who stands 7 feet tall, with the 27th overall pick in the first round of the NBA Draft.
  • Wolf, initially unranked in high school, broke out during his sophomore year at Yale before transferring to Michigan to enhance his NBA draft prospects and fulfill his goal of playing on basketball's biggest stage.
  • Last season, Wolf posted averages of 13.2 points, led the Big Ten with 9.7 rebounds per game, and recorded a career-high 3.6 assists. His strong performance earned him second-team All-Big Ten honors as he played a key role in Michigan’s Big Ten Tournament championship and their advancement to the NCAA Sweet 16.
  • Brooklyn, coming off a 26-56 season without a playoff appearance, selected Wolf with their fourth first-round choice, valuing his distinctive ball-handling and pick-and-roll playmaking abilities despite averaging 3.2 turnovers.
  • Wolf’s selection breaks Michigan’s one-year draft drought and suggests he will compete to contribute immediately while the Nets develop a young core, with his progress as a defender and shooter still to prove.
