    • Michigan, Recruiting

    Iggy Brazdeikis, the 6-foot-8, 220-pound shooting guard from Orangeville (ON) Prep, took the first of his official visits to Michigan last weekend and then hosted Michigan coach John Beilein at school on Tuesday.

    “[The visit] was really good, they really took care of me and my family,” he said Wednesday by phone. “We had a great time. We learned a lot and I saw their style of play and the players work out. I enjoyed everything.”

    The Wolverines see him “playing on the wing and on the perimeter.”

    “They see me as a playmaker creating for others but also myself,” he said. “That’s what they see me as, coming off ball screens and showing how versatile I am.”

    Canadian wing Ignas Brazdeikis has the option of going to college in 2017 or ’18, and is considering his options at the moment.

    “I’m definitely leaning towards 2018 but I’m leaving 2017 open as an option,” he said Friday in an interview.

    The 6-foot-8, 220-pound Brazdeikis runs with CIA Bounce on the Nike EYBL circuit, where he’s averaging about 23 points per game for a team that is currently 5-3 and hoping to qualify for Peach Jam.

    “The schools I hear the most from are schools like UConn, Florida, Michigan, Vanderbilt, Illinois, SMU and Oklahoma, probably,” he said.

    “I’m probably going to cut my list down by maybe the end of the summer. I’m going to decide what I want to do and if I want to cut my list then.”
