The Wolverines will welcome Missouri to Crisler Arena on Tuesday
night in the first round of the NIT. The Tigers are coached by Quin
Snyder, a former Duke player and assistant coach. He played and
coached alongside Michigan’s Tommy Amaker under head coach
Mike Krzyzewski. Missouri is led by forward Arthur Johnson and
guard Rickey Paulding. Both players averaged more than 15 points
per game this season. The Tigers finished the year with a 16-13
overall record. They were 9-7 in the Big 12 conference.
