The NBA Draft Combine began on May 11 and continues through May 18, with numerous players on the fringe of being a first-round pick hoping to boost their stock prior to draft day on June 25.
Among those players hoping to solidify themselves as a first-rounder is Yaxel Lendeborg, a power forward from UAB that is currently committed to Michigan via the transfer portal, but is ultimately hoping to land a guaranteed contract in the NBA. If he receives feedback that indicates he won’t get what he’s looking for, he will head back to college for another year and play under Dusty May in Ann Arbor.
