The Michigan Wolverines' basketball program is navigating another reshuffle of its coaching staff after a championship‑winning season.
Drew Williamson, who served as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator for the Wolverines, announced his move to the Dallas Mavericks, where he will continue to work within the franchise's player development pipeline. He was also selected to participate in the 2026 TopConnect Basketball Symposium, an invitation‑only leadership development event.
A recent social‑media clip captured Williamson in Mavericks apparel, tossing passes to former Michigan big man Morez Johnson Jr., underscoring his integration into the new environment.
A cascade of departures
His departure represents the third staff member to leave the championship roster, following the earlier exit of Justin Joyner, who has now taken the head coaching position at Oregon State.
Interim head coach Mike Boynton Jr. now faces the task of filling two open spots on his bench, with both Williamson and Maor slated to join the Mavericks' staff.
Mody Maor, a former head coach in Japan's B. League with Nagasaki Velca and in Australia with the New Zealand Breakers, brings international experience to Dallas.
Looking ahead
The departures also open pathways for new talent to enter the Wolverines' system, and the university will likely seek candidates with both domestic and overseas coaching pedigrees.
