Overview
- Lendeborg, who sprained his left MCL and left ankle during Saturday’s Final Four win over Arizona, said he will play Monday against UConn.
- Trainer Chris Williams said the injuries showed limited swelling and he is very confident Lendeborg will be available.
- Michigan is running around-the-clock care that includes ice, compression, massage, a Hivamat Mat device, and a Class 4 laser to speed healing.
- He was hurt when he landed on Arizona center Motiejus Krivas’ foot during a dunk attempt, then returned to score 11 points in a 91-73 victory.
- Lendeborg said he expects to be limited on defense and to space to the corner as a three-point option, which could shift minutes and roles across Michigan’s frontcourt.
