According to Kerr, Lendeborg's biggest area to focus on is the defensive side of the floor, particularly in moments of adversity. "Defensive awareness, it's the biggest adjustment a guy like him has to make," Kerr explained. "He already has a great feel offensively, very natural gift for just moving the ball, making the right play, without even having to coach anything on that front. He just does that, and then that will ingratiate himself with his teammates. It's the defensive side where there's so many actions that you see in the NBA that you don't see in the college game. You have to learn personnel. "You have to know who you're going against every night. If we're switching, now you're guarding point guards, you're guarding centers, you're guarding wings. You've got to know all the rotations from all the spots. So that'll take some time, and that's what we're working with him on. The good thing is, he's very experienced as a basketball player. He's 24 now, he turned 24 yesterday. He's played junior college. He's played for a national championship last year with Michigan. He's got a lot of basketball wisdom, and that will serve him well."
