In his first and only year in Ann Arbor, Wolf averaged 13.2 points, 9.7 rebounds and 3.6 assists while helping the Wolverines reach the Sweet Sixteen.<\/p>\n<p>Wolf did just about everything on the floor for Michigan. He brought the ball up the court and initiated the offense, operated as a legitimate scoring threat from the post and perimeter and was a switchable defender.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"scaip scaip-1    \">\n\t\t<\/aside>\n<p>The draft buzz surrounding Wolf started early last season, as the 7-footer was playing in a pseudo-guard role. His tight handle and elite vision made him a nightmare for opposing teams to guard and opened up Michigan\u2019s offensive scheme.<\/p>\n<p>Wolf is projected to go in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nba.com\/news\/bleacher-report-2025-nba-mock-draft-final-four\">mid<\/a>-to-<a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/nba\/draft\/mock-drafts-big-boards\/2025-nba-mock-draft-two-round-projections-entering-nba-play-in-tournament-playoffs\">late <\/a>first round, with some projections even having him <a href=\"https:\/\/nbadraft.theringer.com\/\">pushing <\/a>toward the back end of the lottery. Due to his distinct playstyle with very little good comparisons \u2014 alongside some slumps and recurring turnover woes \u2014 the scouting on him was volatile during the season, with some having him projected in the second round and some slotting him securely in the lottery.<\/p>\n<p>Now, though, it seems as though the experts have reached a consensus that Wolf will land somewhere in the middle of the first round.<\/p>\n<p>From coming out of high school with very few looks from major Division I programs to declaring for the NBA Draft, Wolf has ascended the ranks of basketball stardom at lighting speed, and NBA execs will expect him to continue to do so. But while his exodus was expected, the Wolverines\u2019 roster takes a big hit, and Wolf is quite a hard player to replace.<\/p>\n<aside>\n\t\t<\/aside>\n<p><h3 class=\"jp-relatedposts-headline\"><em>Related articles<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a year of skyrocketing up draft boards, Danny Wolf has officially declared for the NBA Draft.
