Former Ohio State forward Brice Sensabaugh was recently cleared to begin working out with teams ahead of the NBA draft, according to Jonathan Givony of ESPN.
Sensabaugh suffered a knee injury in March that sidelined him for the final two games of the Buckeyes’ season. He eventually required surgery to address the injury, which prevented him from participating in workouts to this point in the pre-draft process.
He is back on the court and went through various drills at his pro day last week. He will likely begin ramping up his visits with teams with the draft approaching in less than three weeks.

Sensabaugh was named to the Big Ten All-Freshmen team after averaging 16.3 points, 5.4 rebounds and 1.2 assists on 40.5% shooting from 3-point range. He finished eighth in the conference in scoring and 13th in the country in offensive box plus-minus (plus-7.8).
The 6-foot-6 Sensabaugh ranked fourth in the country in usage rate (34) and emerged as a strong scorer during his lone season in college. He can work from all three levels and boasts great size to play at the next level at 235 pounds.
He is most commonly projected to be a mid-to-late first-round pick. He will have the opportunity to improve his stock now that he has gained clearance to participate in team workouts.
