COLUMBUS, Ohio — With under a minute to play, Michigan’s DeVante’ Jones came off a ball screen, quickly read the defense and fired a perfect pass between two Ohio State players to Moussa Diabate in the paint.
As Diabate delivered the dagger with a two-handed dunk, Jones trotted back down the court at Value City Arena and put his hands up to his eyes, forming a pair of imaginary glasses.
It was a fitting gesture, considering Jones’ vision and decision-making fueled Michigan’s second-half comeback in Sunday’s regular-season finale and steered the Wolverines to an upset without their star player.
