NBA Combine Results

CHICAGO -- The numbers from the 2023 NBA Draft Combine are in, and the results are jarring-but-not-terribly-surprising. As the league finalized testing in the Windy City among the participants at this year's event, Purdue big man Zach Edey -- quite literally! -- stood well above the rest of the attendees, coming in at a towering 7-foot-3.25 and a wingspan just shy of 7-foot-11.

Edey cleared the rest of the attendees by multiple inches as one of only two players who measured at 7-foot or taller, thanks in part to the decision of Victor Wembanyama to stay in France and not attend as his Mets 92 season continues to play out. His wingspan was also well clear of the next-longest player measured, coming in more than five inches longer than Creighton big man Ryan Kalkbrenner.

In the agility and athletic testing, it was Tennessee's Julian Phillips whose performance helped him stand -- no, no, leap -- to the top of the leaderboard at some of the major events. Phillips posted a 43-inch max vertical and a 36-inch standing vertical, both of which topped the list of those who participated. The aforementioned Edey had the lowest max vert at 29.5 inches.

Finally, in the lane agility and shuttle run sections of testing, North Dakota State big man Grant Nelson shocked the Combine audience with a week-best 9.99. Nelson, like many others below, did not participate in the shuttle run, but did complete the three-quarter court sprint and finished well there, too. Belmont's Ben Sheppard and Kansas' Gradey Dick led the way in testing in the shuttle run with the only sub 3.0-second times.

Most notable perhaps of the results and measurements from the week of course was the list of those who opted not to take part. In addition to Wembanyama, projected top five picks Scoot Henderson and Brandon Miller chose not to participate, with many of the top players already solidified in their standing in the draft with very little to gain.

Looks to me like Zach Edey is far more able to move than people were stating and it seems to me his score indicates he is able to move well enough to be a major force on defense.

He actually beat Emoni Bates score in the agility testing.

Another guy I would try to get is Tristan Vukcevic 6' 11.25'' 223.4 7' 2.50'' he looks like our next Dirk in the video below

Sub 10 seconds in lane agility drill is INSANE.

just realized that the reason we all can look forward to Zach Edey being a maverick is because he is a Canadian. Vukcevic is a Serbian as well maybe that gets him here as well. The karma that Canada owes us for suffering through years of Dwight Powell has to be a factor in the evolution of Zach Edey being here and available for us to draft.

Probably he will go in the first round... But if he fall in the second round we have to acquire a pick for him.

Cason Wallace at 6' 2.5 is a bit of a bummer. I was hoping for at least 6'4. But 6' 8 wingspan.

Ye no small guards, heck, no guards at all. Mavs really need to get some size the upcoming years

I mean I wouldn't discard a guard if he plays tough and is the best player available. Cason plays bigger than he is. But then people write he can guard 1-3 I have some doubts - but then we have Lowry/Holiday who can do it. They should work him out and figure out if he can be a Bane/Holiday type. We need to get bigger regardless of draft.

Cason's comp is Jrue Holiday. Best case scenario comp obv. I'd at least entertain the idea of drafting Cason. Some people are really high on him. Rumor is Toronto really wants him at 13.

Next year mock drafts have a plethora of 7 footers in top 20.

So here’s a crazy thought. Labron said he doesn’t know if he’ll be with the Lakers next season. Would you trade Kyrie for Labron/Rui?

[SOUNDCHASER]

Why he is old rather get Cameron Johnson from BKN than Rui.

[SaintofKillers]

Edey and Bona withdrew. Not a lot of big men left.
