Potential No. 1 picks Paolo Banchero, Chet Holmgren and Jabari Smith Jr. headline the list of prospects set to participate in the NBA draft combine, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic.
The combine will run May 16-22 in Chicago, Illinois, and include executives and scouts from all 30 teams. Teams each year submit a list of the players they would like to see invited, typically those with the highest odds of getting drafted.
The event will feature 5-on-5 games, strength and agility testing, shooting drills, measurements and other related on-court exercises. Prospects will have the opportunity to improve their draft stock in a competitive environment against their peers.
Those underclassmen that filed as early-entry candidates will also have the chance to interview with teams and gain feedback on their draft positioning. The information will be helpful in forming their decisions on staying in the draft or returning to school before the June 1 deadline.
In addition to the trio of players in contention to be the top pick, the combine will also feature several other prospects projected to be high picks on June 23, including Purdue guard Jaden Ivey and Kentucky forward Shaedon Sharpe among others.
