Youssef Khayat helps Lebanon advance to FIBA Asia Cup semifinals

If you follow the Instagram or Twitter pages of the Michigan Wolverines men’s basketball team, you know the 2022-23 squad has already started practicing at the Crisler Center, trying to form chemistry months before the season starts.

One member of that team has not made it to practice yet, as 2022 commit Youssef Khayat has helped Lebanon advance to the semifinals in the FIBA Asia Cup.

In the 72-69 quarterfinal win against China, Khayat came off the bench and struggled with foul trouble, committing four fouls in total with no points, one rebound and one steal.
