What's new

2016 NBA Draft Combine (May 11-15)

From the measurements, some winners are

Poeltl at near 7'2" short arms, but that was known coming in.
Maker at 7'1" 9'5.5" reach.
Hield at 6'5" with the 6'9" WS
Ellenson at 6'11.5" with 9' reach

Maker has a 9'2.5" reach, that is a 3" reduction from his previous measurement. That and weighing in at 216 lbs will surely hurt his stock.
 
Jaylen Brown a little smaller than expected, could drop him a few spots imo. He's almost identical to Stanley Johnson in size (-20 pounds)
 
Skal also at an anemic 216 lbs. If he was 18 I wouldn't worry much about it but at 20...he will get killed in the NBA at that weight.

Unofficial lane agility leaders (in seconds) at 2016 #NBACombine

1. @Bolomboy21 - 10.26
2. Sheldon McClellan / @The_Fourth_Wade - 10.45

Wow, go Joel Bolomboy, I kind of smirked when I saw him listed as a first round pick, but I have seen him listed as a first round pick in two places now. I was hoping he would be around for one of the Jazz late seconds...guess not.

I view Joel Bolomboy as Paul Millsap part 2.
 
It's not even healthy to have a body fat% below 5%.

I'm not an expert on this, and I might be wrong, but I think athletes want to maintain at least 5% body fat.

Those guys aren't 3-4%. Quick body fat testing is highly inaccurate. It's predicted with extensive DEXA scanning top bodybuilders only get down to 5% MAX. Which can only be achieved for 24-48 hours. My guess is the top guys are anywhere from 8-12% And yeah, you are correct, maintaining a low body fat creates a slew of physical and psychological issues.
 
Tony Jones ‎@Tjonessltrib
No source on this. But hearing some of the names the Jazz have real interest in, think there may be a chance of them trading down
 
Tony Jones doesnt know ish. He think Rick Ross is a better rapper than Kendrick Lamar.
Eh, I think lamar the better rapper but I would rather listen to ross. Just like his beats, voice, and general style more.

Everyday I'm hustlin is bad as hell
 
I think the jazz try to interview a lot just to throw people off what they are looking for.

Like the guy that takes 4 cards then ups the bet.
