Yaxel Lendeborg

ANALYSIS
It was the first time in nearly a month Lendeborg had been held to single digits in the scoring department, as he entered the contest averaging 17.5 ppg (to go along with 8.7 rpg) over his previous six games. Without considering preseason expectations, Lendeborg has enjoyed a highly productive campaign for the undefeated Wolverines, though it must be acknowledged that the solid play fellow forwards Aday Mara and Morez Johnson has limited Lendeborg's individual ceiling. It's a pattern that will likely continue as long as Michigan -- who has a real case to be the top team in the country -- continues to see this level of success.
