Projected first-round pick Desmond Bane has been busy training ahead of the NBA draft and the former TCU guard recently took part in a pick-up game with Washington Wizards guard John Wall. Based on a video that surfaced, Bane looks more than ready to make the transition to the NBA.
Bane linked up with Wall, along with Cleveland Cavaliers center Andre Drummond and Minnesota Timberwolves forward James Johnson, during a run hosted by noted trainer Stanley Remy in Miami, and Bane and Wall had the entire gym buzzing after their play.
Wall is seen dribbling the ball up the court and, then, he digs deep and pulls a few tricks out of his bag before gathering himself and lobbing the ball up to Bane at the rim.

Bane was named to the First Team All-Big 12 last season after averaging 16.6 points, 6.3 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1.5 steals in 32 games with the Horned Frogs. He emerged as a strong catch-and-shooter threat from deep, converting on 44.2% of his looks from 3-point range.
The 22-year-old believes he will be a mid-to-late first-round pick on Nov. 18 based on the feedback he has received from NBA teams. His shooting touch is noted but his athleticism and size and strength are also reasons why teams are intrigued by his overall game.
He certainly showed his athleticism in Miami…
