Michigan added Winters Grady into the mix back on October 18 when he became the first Wolverine to commit to Dusty May in the 2025 cycle. Grady comes to Ann Arbor as a four-star recruit and according to the Compsite, he is the 83rd-ranked player in the '25 cycle.

The 6-foot-5 small forward will bring a 3-point shot to the Wolverines. He posted 19 points per game during the recent 3SSB season on 53/42/87 shooting splits. Along with being a complete scorer, he plays well defensively and something that Michigan could utilize right away.

His versatility and physicality, on both the offense and defense end, will allow him to be a factor for us right away. The more we dug in and got to know him and his family, the more we realized that this a guy that we need to have in our program."
