Here’s how Danny Wolf played a role in Yaxel Lendeborg committing to Michigan

Dusty May and the Michigan Wolverines received huge news on Saturday morning when former University of Alabama Birmingham forward Yaxel Lendeborg committed out of the transfer portal. The 6-foot-9, 240-pounder averaged 17.7 points, 11.4 rebounds and 5.2 assists per game this past season, while shooting 52.2 percent from the field, 35.7 percent from three and 75.7 percent from the free throw line.

Lendeborg is the No. 1 ranked player in the portal this cycle and is a monster addition to the Wolverines’ 2025-26 squad...if he stays in college. He is also testing the NBA draft waters, and his final decision may not come for the next couple months with June 15 being the deadline to withdrawal from the draft.
