Rutgers basketball center Cliff Omoruyi showed well this weekend at the G League Elite Camp. The NBA draft hopeful certainly helped his professional aspirations and might have solidified himself as a player ready to take the next step in his professional.
It was two solid days for Omoruyi, even if he sparkled the most in his first game of the event. Omoruyi was assigned to ‘Team Four.’
As a starter, Omoruyi scored 12 points and added seven rebounds in Saturday’s win for ‘Team Four.’ As part of a design to see that all the players got their chance to be showcased before NBA scouts and teams, most players at the event started one of the two scheduled games.
On Sunday as part of a rotation of players and minutes, Omoruyi came off the bench, scoring three points and adding three rebounds in just 17 minutes.
He made his only shot in what was a loss for ‘Team Four.’

He also measured and tested well:
- Heigh: 6-feet-9 inches
- Weight:
- Hand-dimension (width): 11 inches
- Standing reach: 9-feet and 2.5 inches
- Wingspan: 7-feet and 6.25 inches
His height and weight at good, as is his body fat, which checked in at 6 percent. But his wingspan and standing reach is impressive. His solid performance over the weekend coupled with his length should intrigue some scouts.
This was a fantastic weekend for Omoruyi, possibly even to the point where he will become a draftable player.
