Juwan Howard’s crew proved itself nearly unstoppable so far. But it’s stopped now — stopped cold.

The Wolverines reside in COVID purgatory, despite not a positive test among them. They’re facing the timeout with no sure ending.

But who really knows? Plenty of dates for relief from the lockdowns in Michigan have come and gone, hope replaced by the worst kind of overtime.

It’s not just Howard, senior forward Isaiah Livers, freshman center sensation Hunter Dickinson and their team feeling the COVID cuffs. Fifty-point scorer and junior forward Naz Hillmon and her teammates are in the same boat — socially distanced, of course.
