Houstan averaged 10.1 points on 38.4 percent shooting (35.5 percent from three) and 4.0 rebounds in his lone season at Michigan. He was a consensus 5-star recruit who was ranked in the top seven by ESPN, Rivals and 247Sports.

The high point of the 19-year-old's season came in late February, when he scored 21 points in back-to-back games against Rutgers and Illinois.

Houstan also had a big game in Michigan's first-round men's NCAA tournament win against Colorado State, hitting back-to-back three-pointers midway through the second half to help his team pull away in a 75-63 win. He finished with 13 points.

The No. 11 seed Wolverines then upset No. 3 Tennessee before falling to No. 2 Villanova in the Sweet Sixteen.

The Canadian was just one of two Wolverines, alongside Eli Brooks, who started all 34 games for Michigan last season.
