Livers is averaging 15.4 points and 5.6 rebounds per game, but perhaps has been the most impressive from the free-throw line.Since the beginning of the 2019-20 college season, Isaiah Livers is shooting 95.4% (62-65) from the free throw line. Ridiculous FT%— Zach Milner (@ZachMilner13) December 26, 2020Livers uses his big frame to draw contact in the lane and get to the free-throw line. This season, Livers has been sent to the charity stripe 19 times, and has missed just once. The Wolverines' offense will be running through Livers on Thursday, and he will need to be sharp against this talented Maryland Terrapins defense.Michigan Wolverines Predicted LineupG Isaiah Livers, F Hunter Dickinson, G Eli Brooks, F Franz Wagner, G Mike Smith_________________________________________________________________Maryland Terrapins PreviewRutgers v MarylandThe Maryland Terrapins are coming off of their biggest victory of the season thus far, a huge 70-64 road win over the No. 6 Wisconsin Badgers. The Terrapins moved to 1-2 in conference play with the win, and will need to continue their momentum into this matchup on Thursday against the Michigan Wolverines. The Terrapins have lost three of their last five games, but have the talent to give anyone in the Big 10 a run for their money.Key Player - Donta ScottDonta Scott will play a huge role on the Maryland Terrapins' offense in Thursday's matchup with the Michigan Wolverines.
