Michigan basketball announces addition of three-man 2025 signing class
Michigan Wolverines basketball has officially announced the addition of a trio of signees in the 2025 class in Orchard Lake (Mich.) St. Mary’s four-star shooting guard Trey McKenney, Napa (Calif.) Prolific Prep four-star small forward Winters Grady and three-star power forward Oscar Goodman out of Auckland, New Zealand and the NBA Global Academy.
In response to the pending House vs. NCAA settlement, the three athletes have signed Big Ten Athletic Scholarship agreements, as opposed to national letters of intent that have been inked in the past.
While Michigan has a three-man class at this point, the Wolverines are still recruiting in 2025, according to head coach Dusty May. This is his first full cycle as the man in charge in Ann Arbor.
“I am excited to have Trey, Winters, and Oscar join our program,” May said in a statement. “All three are highly competitive players who come from great families. Each of them has a unique skill set which will allow us to continue playing the way we believe is best. They’ve all been coached, and developed, by some of the most respected and accomplished teachers of the game. We look forward to them getting to Ann Arbor.”
McKenney is the No. 1 player in the state of Michigan, a 6-foot-4 guard. He checks in as the No. 21 overall player in the class, according to the On3 Industry Ranking.
“Trey embodies everything it means to be a Michigan Man,” May said in a statement. “He comes from a family of strong faith and high character. He has been taught how to play the game the right way and values competition. His versatility as a big, strong guard is going to be a tremendous asset to our program.”
As a junior, he led Orchard Lake St. Mary’s to a 27-1 record, winning the Division 1 State Championship. In the championship game, he had 32 points and grabbed 10 rebounds in a 63-52 win. During the season, he averaged 22.8 points, 10.1 rebounds, and 3.3 assists per game, taking home the 2024 Michigan Associated Press Division 1 Basketball Player of the Year award for the second straight year.
In 2024, McKenney was named to the USA Men’s U18 National Team to compete in the FIBA U18 AmeriCup. At the tournament, he helped lead Team USA to a gold medal, averaging a team second-best 10.8 points per game, in addition to 5.3 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 1.3 steals.
Grady, meanwhile, ranks as the No. 60 overall player in the class and seventh-best player in California. He’s originally from Lake Oswego, Oregon, but transferred to play his high school basketball at the aforementioned prep program.

“Winters is a flat-out competitor,” said May. “He is tailor-made for how we want to play at Michigan. His ability to shoot the ball is one of the reasons he’s an ideal fit. His versatility and physicality, on both the offense and defense end, will allow him to be a factor for us right away. The more we dug in and got to know him and his family, the more we realized that this a guy that we need to have in our program.”
he averaged 19.5 points per game on the Adidas 3SSB Circuit playing for Jalen Green Elite. Grady shot 57 percent from the field and shot 37 percent from beyond the arc. He finished in the top 10 of the league in scoring and efficiency.
During his junior season (2023-24), Grady converted on 45.6 percent of his 79 three-point attempts in 13 games.
Goodman is Michigan’s lowest-ranked signee, checking in No. 191 overall according to the On3 Industry Ranking, but he impressed at the FIBA U17 World Cup, shooting 63 percent around the rim in helping New Zealand to a fourth-place finish. He averaged 17 points, 6.3 rebounds and 3 assists per game, earning honors on the tournament’s All-Star Five team.
“Oscar arrives in Ann Arbor as an accomplished international player and prospect, who was just named to the New Zealand senior national team,” the Michigan coach said. “He comes from a tight-knit family that values everything that we want our program to be about. His training at the NBA Academy, as well as his eagerness and ability to compete, will allow him to affect our program positively from day one.”
At the 2023 FIBA U16 Asian Championship, he was named tournament MVP while helping New Zealand secure a silver medal. The previous year, he led the U15 team to a silver medal at the 2022 FIBA U15 Oceania Championship, where he was the team’s top scorer and earned a spot on the all-tournament first team.
