No. 2 Michigan Snaps McNeese State's Win Streak in 40-Point Rout

Nine and seven off the bench Gayle closed Tuesday's 89-61 win over Villanova with nine points (4-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds and two assists across 19 minutes.

Impact Gayle had his most active day on the glass yet with seven boards, and continued to be efficient from the field if not from distance. Still, the guard is bringing 11.0 points, 3.7 rebounds and 2.2 assists off the bench in Ann Arbor -- he's been extremely valuable for head coach Dusty May and company. Gayle is still liable to have a big night even when he doesn't start, especially considering how dominant Michigan has been.
