ANN ARBOR -- Michigan basketball coach John Beilein announced Wednesday that starting point guard Trey Burke has been suspended for the team's exhibition opener against Northern Michigan due to a "violation of team standards."

Burke's suspension will only be one game.

"We have high standards and values for our student-athletes and we expect everyone to meet those expectations," Beilein said in a written statement. "Trey will sit out the first game as a result of some 'out of character' decisions he now regrets.

"We believe he has learned a valuable lesson and we are confident he will grow from this experience."

The co-Big Ten Freshman of the Year in 2011-12, Burke was named to The Associated Press' All-American first team this week after setting Michigan's freshman record for assists in a single season.

He was also voted as a member of the All-Big Ten team last week in Chicago.

After contemplating whether or not to leave Michigan for the NBA draft in the spring, Burke ultimately decided to return to the program and is a major reason why the Wolverines will open the season ranked No. 5 in both major polls.

Burke did receive discipline from Beilein once last season, as he was removed from the starting lineup for the season-opener against Ferris State after being late to a pregame walkthrough.

Beilein said freshman point guard Spike Albrecht will start in Burke's place Thursday against Northern Michigan.

"Trey's a good kid, obviously," Beilein added. "He's going to sit out this game and he'll learn (from this).

"It gives a great opportunity for some of our other guys, there's probably 30 minutes (open) and we look forward to seeing those guys out there."
