Naz Hillmon is hitting the big screen, with Big Ten Network set to feature the Michigan senior forward in “The B1G Story: Naz Hillmon.”
The B1G Story is a docuseries that follows some of the Big Tenβs most prolific athletes and coaches. Hillmon is one of the best players in women’s college basketball, coming off of a season in which she was named 2021 Big Ten Player of the Year and previously setting the Michigan scoring record with a 50-point game. At the time, she was just the second Big Ten womenβs player to reach the mark (Michigan Stateβs Nia Clouden recently became the third).
