Lendeborg’s Curry Pivot

Golden State just drafted Yaxel Lendeborg with the 11th pick, and yes—this six-foot-nine forward once hated Steph Curry. Back in 2016, Lendeborg was a Kyrie Irving stan, cheering against Steph and the Warriors in the Finals. Now? He’s flipping the script, saying he’ll work hard to become Curry’s new favorite player. Lendeborg’s got serious chops: led Michigan to the NCAA title, averaged 15+ points, 6+ rebounds, 3+ assists, earned All-American honors, and made history with three straight 20+ point NCAA tournament games. Curry even replied to his draft night post—welcome to the Bay, kid. The NBA’s got a new story, and it’s already turning rivals into teammates.
