Michael Lee is a fictional character on the HBO drama The Wire, played by Tristan Wilds. He is a middle school pupil and a friend of Namond Brice, Randy Wagstaff, and Duquan "Dukie" Weems. More soft-spoken and composed than his friends, Michael takes on a leadership role among his peers. Michael is very protective of his younger half-brother Bug, to whom he is effectively a parent, and Dukie, who is often ridiculed by his peers for his poverty and poor hygiene. Michael's mother Raylene is a drug addict, and he avoids discussing his home life because of his precarious family situation. It is strongly implied that he was sexually abused by Bug's father Devar, who is returning from prison. As he grows older, Michael pushes away many of his peers and acquaintances, including his boxing coach Cutty, and eventually his friends Randy and Dukie. He becomes a protégé of Marlo Stanfield's enforcer Chris Partlow, an unemotional killer who may also have been abused as a child. In his last scene, he is shown robbing drug dealers, implying he is set to take the place of Omar.
