Michigan 7-footer Danny Wolf declares for NBA draft
Michigan junior forward Danny Wolf declared for the 2025 NBA Draft on Wednesday, forgoing his remaining eligibility.
The 7-footer averaged 13.2 points, 9.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.4 blocks in 37 starts during his lone season with the Wolverines in 2024-25.
"This season exceeded all expectations," Wolf told ESPN. "We had an awesome year from a team standpoint. I didn't know what I was getting myself into with a brand-new roster and coaching staff, but Dusty May had an out-of-the-box plan for my development with a unique style of offense that allowed me to play my game. I wouldn't be in the position I am today without them letting me showcase my skill-set and developing me into the player I am today."
A second-team All-Big Ten selection, Wolf ranks No. 19 in ESPN's latest NBA draft projections.
After two seasons at Yale, Wolf transferred to Michigan and shot 49.7 percent from the field and 33.6 percent (38 of 113) from 3-point range this season. He had 15 double-doubles and helped the Wolverines reach the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament.
The NBA draft combine is May 11-18 in Chicago, and the draft is June 25-26 in New York.
