Update On Former Michigan Wolverines In The NBA And NHL

Two former Wolverines participated in the NBA's All-Star Weekend in Chicago. Miami Heat forward Duncan Robinson was a contestant in the Three-Point Contest Saturday night, and he put up 19 points in the first round, but it was not enough to qualify for the final round.

Last week, Robinson knocked down his 200th career three-pointer. He accomplished that feat just 69 games into his career, which is 15 games fewer than any other player in league history.

Washington Wizards forward Moe Wagner played in the Rising Stars Game Friday night, and recorded 16 points, four rebounds and two steals in 16 minutes of play. His Team World lost to Team USA, 151-131.

The All-Star break gave Wagner a chance to return to Ann Arbor Sunday to watch his younger brother, Franz Wagner, in live action against the Indiana Hoosiers. The younger Wagner scored 16 points on 7-for-11 shooting and 2-for-4 from deep, and added eight rebounds in front of Moe.

Also in attendance were close to 150 former U-M basketball players, coaches and staffers, who were all honored at center court before Sunday's blowout win over Indiana.

In the NHL, Dallas Stars forward Andrew Cogliano reached a huge milestone — he played in his 1,000th career game in the league, and that game happened to be in his hometown of Toronto. He notched an assist in a 3-2 win for his Stars.

Cogliano has been a mainstay in the league, only missing seven total games during the span of his 13-year career. He is just one of 30 current NHL players to have reached this milestone, and is the 348th player of all-time to play in 1,000 or more games.
