LAS VEGAS (Interstat) — Two undefeated starts will be on the line when Michigan hosts Auburn in a high-profile non-conference men’s basketball clash Tuesday at T-Mobile Arena.

The Wolverines (4-0) have navigated a challenging early schedule, including an overtime win against Wake Forest and a hard-fought 67-63 road victory at TCU. They are coming off an 86-61 rout of Middle Tennessee, where Yaxel Lendeborg led the way with 25 points.

Auburn (4-1) brings a potent offense to the desert, averaging 94.4 points per game. The Tigers are looking to build momentum after a dominant 112-66 win over Jackson State on Wednesday, where KeShawn Murphy scored 19 points and Filip Jovic added 18. Their lone blemish is a narrow 73-72 home loss to Houston.

This neutral-site game serves as a major test for both teams before conference play begins. Michigan’s defense, which has held opponents to an average of 66.5 points, will be tasked with slowing down Auburn’s high-scoring attack.

The matchup features a battle in the paint, with Auburn’s Murphy and Jovic going against Michigan’s Lendeborg and highly-touted freshman Morez Johnson.

Tipoff is set for 9 p.m. EST Tuesday as part of the annual Las Vegas Invitational.
