Michigan Basketball Recruiting: Five-star 2016 guard Tyus Battle commits to U-M

The elite guard's father tells Scout's Evan Daniels that his son has committed to the University of Michigan

Elite class of 2016 guard Tyus Battle (Edison, New Jersey) has committed to Michigan, his father told Scout.com's Evan Daniels. Battle himself confirmed via his Twitter account soon after.

Battle is a five-star prospect,  the fourth-ranked shooting guard and the 12th overall player in the class of 2016, per the 247 Composite ranking. He joins centers Jon Teske and Austin Davis as the other two commitments in the cycle for John Beilein and the Michigan Wolverines basketball program.

Where we stand today, all of Michigan's 2016-17 scholarships are now accounted for after this commitment. Attrition is always possible, so we will see how it ends up shaking out in time.
