  "account": "Tony Garcia reports from Michigan basketball's exhibition win over Oregon State with four notable takeaways. Guard Elliot Cadeau contributed 27 points and eight assists while Moustapha Thiam continued to impress as a center, scoring 19 points, grabbing 10 rebounds, and dishing out five assists. Trey McKenney showed his potential as a first-team All-Big Ten candidate with eight 3-pointers and various other highlights. Kenny Noland stepped up as a transfer from Columbia, filling in for injured starters Cadeau and McKenney, contributing six points and three assists. The Wolverines' defense could use improvement as the team lost key defensive players Aday Mara, Morez Johnson Jr., and Yaxel Lendeborg, leaving a void in their play.",
