Post-Dusty May departure, L.J. Cason transferring from Michigan
Michigan forward Yaxel Lendeborg (23) and guard L.J. Cason (2) wave to fans on Tuesday, April, 7, 2026, at Crisler Center after the team arrived home after winning the NCAA national championship, 69-63, against Connecticut. Guard L.J. Cason is transferring away from Michigan following the departure of Dusty May, according to a Monday On3 report.
Cason, a rising junior, was a reserve for the national champion Wolverines, though he saw his minutes increase substantially over his freshman season. Cason's minutes rose from 11.8 to 18.6, while his scoring average increased from 4.3 ppg to 8.4.
His 2025-26 season was cut short, however, due to an ACL injury he suffered against Illinois on Feb. 27.
May left the Wolverines late last month, taking over the top coaching job for the Dallas Mavericks.
Assistant Mike Boynton was tabbed the interim coach, with the interim designation removed when he was given a two-year contract on Friday.
