Brazdeikis is a four-star recruit that John Beilein offered a scholarship back in April.
The 6-foot-7, 210-pound guard was thinking about reclassifying to to the 2017 class but elected against it.
Brazdeikis had offers to play for Baylor, Canisius, Cincinnati, Denver, Memphis, Niagara, Oregon, SMU, Southern Utah, St. Bonaventure, Tennessee, UNLV, USC, and Vanderbilt.
He's a stretch forward that has a lot of strength and is a pure scorer from multiple spots on the floor. Brazdeikis can pass the ball well and has good range from deep.
Brazdeikis joins Brandon Johns, David DeJulius and Taylor Currie in the 2018 class.
Here's some highlights of the Canadian forward:
