Michigan Lands 2026 Wing Malachi Brown as Third Commit Under Dusty May

The 6-foot-5 three-star surged onto recruiting boards after an Adidas All-American Camp breakout.

Overview

  • Brown announced his commitment Wednesday night, extending Michigan's early momentum in the 2026 cycle.
  • The Knoxville Catholic small forward is listed at 6-foot-5 and ranked No. 154 in the 247Sports Composite.
  • He gained traction with strong play on the Adidas 3SSB circuit and at the Adidas All-American Camp in Ladera Ranch, where scouts identified him as a sleeper.
  • Brown said Michigan was his first Power Four offer following an earlier scholarship from UC Santa Barbara.
  • He joins seven-footer Marcus Moller and 6-foot-10 forward Quinn Costello in the class, with coach Dusty May moving quickly after an in-person workout evaluation reported last week.
