Despite initially going down with a concerning ankle injury early on during Michigan’s 91-72 Final Four win over Arizona on Saturday, Wolverines star Yaxel Lendeborg was able to make his way back to the court for the victory. Midway through the first quarter, Lendeborg rolled his ankle while fouled on a layup attempt, along with taking a rough fall back down on the hardwood. Lendeborg slapped the ground as he landed, screaming in pain while getting up before putting his hands in his face while walking off the court after hitting both of his free throws.
