ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) Once Hunter Dickinson established himself as one of the top freshmen in the country, this became a matchup to look forward to.

It's finally here: Dickinson and No. 3 Michigan against Luka Garza and No. 9 Iowa. A battle between two of college basketball's top big men - who are both from the Washington, D.C. area and have known each other for years.

"It's really impressive to see what he's done so far, but I think anybody from the DMV would have told you that that was going to happen," Garza said about his younger counterpart. "He's been very elite for a while."
