Indiana Hoosiers junior Trayce Jackson-Davis will reportedly miss the NBA draft combine after testing positive for the coronavirus, according to Jeff Rabjohns of Peegs.com.
Jackson-Davis returned the positive test result last week, which affected his preparations for the combine. He did not participate in the on-court testing or the anthro measurements on Wednesday and is not listed to play in the 5-on-5 scrimmages starting on Thursday.
Prospects have the opportunity to meet with teams for interviews, but Jackson-Davis was also forced to cancel those appearances, as well. He could still speak with teams virtually but it is not known if that will happen this week.

Jackson-Davis, who was named to the All-Big Ten second team, averaged 18.3 points, 8.1 rebounds, 2.3 blocked shots and 1.9 assists in 35 games. He became just the second player in program history to record at least 1,500 points, 750 rebounds and 150 blocks in a career.
The 6-foot-9 forward declared for the draft on April 9 but left open the option to return to school. He is not currently projected to be drafted and could be a strong candidate to return to Bloomington next season after missing the opportunity to perform at the combine.
He has until June 1 to withdraw from the draft and return to school.
