overall, but maybe not so much where defense and rebounding are concered.

Mara is averaging 11.4 points per game, which can largely be attributed to his 22 minutes per game for Michigan, but he's making almost 67% of his 2-pt shots, and he's even 2-6 on 3-pointers. His 2.4 assists per game are more than double is 1.0 as a Bruin.

However, his rebounding percentages are slightly lower than last season at UCLA. His blocks per minute or possession are also slightly down.

But all of that could be due to the overall defensive dominance of his teammates.
