Timothy "Tim" Duane Hardaway, Jr. (born March 16, 1992 in Miami, Florida) is an American college basketball shooting guard with the Michigan Wolverines basketball team who has completed his true freshman season for the 2010–11 team. He is the son of National Basketball Association All-Star Tim Hardaway. As a high school basketball player, he was a three-time All-City performer for Miami Palmetto High School.

As a freshman during the 2010–11 NCAA Division I men's basketball season, he had an early season shooting slump, but finished strong enough to earn four Big Ten Conference Freshman of the Week awards, including three in the final four weeks during which he averaged over 20 points a game to help the team to climb up to fourth in the 2010–11 Big Ten Conference men's basketball season standings. He was an honorable mention All-Big Ten selection and a unanimous Big Ten All-Freshman team selection following the season. He established the Michigan freshman record for single-season three point shots made. He was a 2011 Collegeinsider.com Freshmen All-America selection.

College

Although Hardaway led the team in scoring in his first career game and the season opener with 19 points against South Carolina Upstate,[6] he was soon in a shooting slump that saw him shoot 4 for 30 on his field goals in late November games against Syracuse and UTEP.[7] These games marked the beginning of a slump during which he went 13 consecutive games without achieving a 50% field goal percentage.[8]

Hardaway earned four Big Ten Freshman of the week awards. On December 27, the Big Ten Conference named Hardaway co-freshman of the week along with Jared Sullinger.[9] On December 23, 2010, against Bryant University, the team tied its December 13, 2008 single-game school record of 16 three point field goals made,[10] and Hardaway was one of three Wolverines to make 4 three point shots.[10][11] It was Hardaway's first 20-point game.[9] On February 14, Hardaway earned his second Big Ten Conference Freshman of the week recognition for his first career double-double on February 9 against Northwestern (17 points and career-high 10 rebounds)[12] and a career-high 26 points on February 12 against Indiana.[13][14] The following week, Hardaway earned a third Big Ten Conference Freshman of the week award as he became the first Michigan freshman to score thirty points in a game in eight years.[15] His thirty points came in a 75–72 February 19 overtime victory over Iowa.[16] He had also scored 10 points and added 5 assists in a 54–52 loss to Illinois.[17] On February 28, Hardaway earned his third consecutive and fourth overall Big Ten Conference Freshman of the week recognition.[18] During the week, Hardaway extended his double-digit scoring streak to eleven by posting 22 points against Minnesota on February 26 after scoring 16 against #12 Wisconsin on February 23.[18][19][20] For the week, he shot 9 for 15 on his three point shots.[19][20]

As a result of the three consecutive freshman of the week performances and a final week in which he scored 20 in the team's only game, he averaged 20.1 points during the final 7 games of the regular season while the team won six of its final eight,[8] which enabled it to finish tied for fourth for the conference standings and earn the fourth seed in the 2011 Big Ten Conference Men's Basketball Tournament.[21] He led the team in scoring during the 18-game conference schedule of the 2010–11 Big Ten Conference men's basketball season, edging out teammate Darius Morris by a 268–263 (14.9–14.6 points per game) margin. He also led the team in steals (1.17/game), free throw percentage (71.2%, min 2.0 made/game), three point shooting percentage (44.2%, min 1.0 made/game), and three point shots made per game (2.56) over the course of the conference schedule.[22] Following the Big Ten Conference season, Hardaway was an honorable mention All-Big Ten selection by both the coaches and the media. Hardaway was also one of two unanimous All-Freshman team selections by the coaches.[23][24] He was one of 21 players selected to the 2011 Collegeinsider.com Freshmen All-America selection.[25]

In the semifinals of the 2011 Big Ten Tournament against Ohio State, he set the Michigan freshman single-season three point shots made record of 74.[26] For the season, Hardaway led the team in three point shots made per game and free throw percentage (among qualifying players).[27] He finished the season with 16 consecutive double digit scoring efforts.[28]
