He comes from a school like Uab and previously played at Junior College, wants to present its versatility on the square.

“I have the feeling that my game is still developing, but I am up to date. I am a willing passerby, a good rebounder, and I just want to show that I am a jack of all trades,” said Lendeborg.

When he thought about his five -year trip, he gave the challenges that he was facing early.

“It is a blessing to be honest with you.

While Lendeborg is considering whether he should stay in college or enter the NBA design, he describes his current way of thinking as “60-40” in favor of Michigan.

“This whole process really opens my eyes. I definitely got stuck in between,” said Lendeborg.

“I want to be in a position in which I know that I can get the opportunity to play myself and prove myself,” said Lendeborg.

He also discussed the Nile situation in Michigan and noted that they presented a number, but it was about the money for him; It was more about his trust in the men in corn.

Lendeborg said he appreciates the support of the coaches and the teammates, of which he believes they will help him go to the next level.

When asked whether he was a lower -sized great man or a great playmaker, Lendeborg said the ladder when he was a fan of growth Erving “magic” Johnson.

“I would say I'm a bigger guard,” said Lendeborg. “When I started playing basketball, everything was awake. I tried to be like Magic Johnson, so I can hopefully keep this narrative going.”

When he was asked about his return capabilities, he attributed his success to the timing and positioning when he was inspired by the NBA Hall of Fame Dennis Rodman.

“I saw a small video about Dennis Rodman, in which he spoke about how he fell down the timing for rebounds, and that used me as much as possible while I tried to hit everyone to the ball,” said Lendeborg.

Lendeborg continued:

“I'm not the sportiest guy, so I'm trying to hit boys and find out where to go before they do it,” said Lendeborg.

He recognized the difference in the competition in the combine compared to college and said: “The pace is different and the level of the game is much higher.”

While he looks at his future, he hopes to receive a promise from a team before a decision. “If it doesn't happen until then, the decision will be really difficult to make,” said Lendeborg.

Lendeborg also shared personal insights into his upbringing, including the way his mother played an important role in his development.

“Before my final year, my mother had a real heart-to-heart conversation with me. That really stated me,” said Lendeborg.

Lendeborg remains optimistic about his future and says: “I am very grateful, very modest about this situation, and hopefully I can make the best of it.”
