Historic Michigan Blocker Now a Legacy Figure, Not a Current Roster Player
Phil DeVries is not a current Michigan Wolverines athlete; he is a former forward (2004–2007) who set the school’s single-game blocks record (9) and season total (88) as a junior in 2004, averaging 4.1 pts, 5.1 reb, 2.3 stl, and 4.5 blk that year [4][6][7]. His differentiator was elite defensive intensity and rim protection at 6’10”, 225 lbs, with a reputation for high-energy, physical play [4][9]. As of the 2025–26 season, he has no active stats or roster status—his name appears only in historical archives [4][8][10]. You should care for his legacy as Michigan’s most dominant collegiate shot-blocker of the mid-2000s, but he is not a fit for any current team.
