Yaxel Lendeborg, a forward for Michigan, has been hailed as a "cinderella story" after his team won the national championship over UConn. Despite not being fully himself due to a knee injury, he made it on the biggest stage with six straight points in winning time. His performance and unselfishness helped Michigan become the best team in the country. Roddy Gayle Jr., who played alongside Yaxel, feels that his best days are likely over due to his close friend and brother. Despite his struggles and setbacks, he remains a hero for the team and its fans.
