Early life and high school career

Livers was born on July 28, 1998, in Kalamazoo, Michigan, to Angela and Morris Livers. He started playing basketball at the age of five with his father in the driveway. Michigan began recruiting Livers in May 2016 and he made his official visit on July 28, earning an offer. At the end of his recruitment, he was considering visiting Cal, but decided to cancel the visit and commit to Michigan. On August 7, 2016, Livers committed to Michigan over contenders Michigan State, Butler, Minnesota, California, and Boston College. Livers signed his National Letter of Intent to Michigan as part of a three-scholarship player incoming class with Jordan Poole and Eli Brooks.

Livers edged out second-place finisher Xavier Tillman by a 2,811–2,739 vote margin, although Tillman received three more first-place ballots. It was the closest vote in Mr. Basketball of Michigan history. Livers was Michigan's 11th Mr. Basketball of Michigan, but the first since Manny Harris in 2007.

He missed the next game against Wisconsin before returning to the starting lineup on February 14 against Iowa. The team lost in the 2018 NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Championship Game to second-ranked Villanova.
