Michigan and Nebraska opened their game on Tuesday night in similar fashion to NBA, college basketball, and other games across the world: with a tribute to Kobe Bryant.
The Wolverines opened the game with a 10-second violation. Nebraska took a 30-second violation.
Michigan and Nebraska are coached by former NBA players, Juwan Howard and Fred Hoiberg.
