The Michigan men’s basketball team was rewarded for another strong week by moving up in Monday’s AP Top 25 poll. The Wolverines improved four spots to No. 20 in the weekly poll. They beat Washington at home on Sunday, 91-75, and won at then-No. 22 UCLA 94-75 on Tuesday. They have won five straight games and are 13-3 overall.

Michigan (13-3, 5-0 Big Ten) is one of five teams in the Big Ten which made this week's top 25. Michigan State basketball jumped from No. 14 to No. 12, while No. 14 Oregon, No. 15 Purdue and No. 20 Illinois all remained in the poll, and Wisconsin, Indiana, Maryland and UCLA all received votes.
