Earlier this week, the NBA announced 78 players that have been invited and are expected to attend the Microsoft Surface NBA draft combine in Chicago.
Out of those 78 players invited, 69 come from colleges while the other nine are from either from the G League, Overtime Elite, or overseas leagues.
Below we will take a look at which colleges will be represented in Chicago and who will be sending the most prospects to the combine.
But first, it’s worth noting that the NBA Combine is scheduled for May 15 through the 21 at Winstrust Arena and the Marriott Marquis in Chicago. The near entirety of the combine will be able to be watched either on ESPN or via the NBA App.
