Lendeborg limped onto the court after a left knee sprain and ankle injury, but returned in the second half and fired 11 points, including two quick 3‑pointers, in Michigan’s 91‑73 victory over Arizona.
The 6‑ft‑9 guard, a Big Ten Player of the Year and first‑team All‑American, exemplified toughness, proving his value in the Wolverines’ championship run.
