Jimmer also had the slowest sprint time from all the guards in the top 30.

Yeah but we already knew that. He's never been known for his open court speed. What is very interesting is his very good agility scores. I don't think ANYONE saw that coming.

Word is, South Beach is ecstatic that they
won't be seeing Millsaps talents again this season...

Good to see Jimmer test so well. While I don't know just how much it helps his stock it's going to help put the non-athletic stereotype to rest. His max vertical was a bit lower than I expected and his sprint time wasn't amazing but I think the agility drills are the ones most people thought he would tank in and he did work in those. His strength is really impressive for a PG, I believe only Shelvin "The bowling ball" Mack out benched him amongst the guards (I could be wrong, just did a brief overlook). I think overall the combine really helped his stock. Teams were clearly impressed with his interviews and the shooting/athletic testing only helped him more. His stock/projected pick is going to be volatile to say the least....he is going to be projected all over the place heading into the draft.

Really surprised how poorly Leonard tested, I wonder how it will play into his stock come draft time. I hope he just wasn't warmed up or something because his numbers really sucked for all the hype he was getting.

Kanter and Williams tested pretty good overall. Williams' strength is apparent with his bench press reps...I'm starting to think he is going to be a PF in the NBA whether he likes it or not; it just fits him so much better than SF.

DX has a nice summary of the athletic testing results, including their own "composite" score. Their writeup is full of disclaimers about how this data may or may not mean anything, but it's interesting. Of the top prospects, Brandon Knight ranks the highest (5th overall). Jimmer ranks 12th overall.

Goudelock results both shooting and athletic were fantastic, that guy really intrigues me, he is from small collage but seams to have solid skills for that pg, sg spot. Interesting if he can be a "steal" of that draft

I feel the same way. I have him as one of my sleepers in this draft.
