Michigan basketball officially signs trio of transfers in frontcourt
The Wolverines made their transfer additions official, signing J.P. Estrella, Moustapha Thiam and Jalen Reed, the program announced Tuesday, April 28.
Michigan basketball officially has a new trio of frontcourt players after it announced the signing of three transfers. The Wolverines officially added J. P.
Estrella (Tennessee) , Jalen Reed (LSU) and Moustapha Thiam (Cincinnati) to the 2026-27 roster, three players who come in with pedigree. It's all part of U-M remaking its frontcourt after it lost a ton of production from its national championship roster. Estrella was a key player for Tennessee, who Michigan beat 95-62 in Chicago to advance to the Final Four.
The 6-foot-11 forward from Scarborough, Maine, had seven points and seven rebounds in that contest and has two years of eligibility remaining. "J. P.
brings size, toughness and a lot of energy to our frontcourt," Michigan coach Dusty May said in a statement. "He knows what it takes to win at a high level and plays the game the right way. He runs the floor, rebounds, competes on every possession and gives us a strong presence around the basket.
