Dusty May did a great job this offseason in the transfer portal for the Michigan Wolverines, bringing in the No. 2 overall class with guys like UNC point guard Elliot Cadeau, Illinois big man Morez Johnson Jr. and UCLA big man Aday Mara. The biggest catch of them all was UAB forward Yaxel Lendeborg, the No. 1 ranked player in the portal.
There’s just one slight problem — Lendeborg also declared for the NBA Draft in hopes of receiving a guaranteed contract. After performing in the NBA Combine this week, despite recently saying he is leaning 60/40 to play in Ann Arbor next season, it appears Lendeborg may actually have more of a shot to get that coveted guaranteed contract.
