Just some food for thought from David Locke.
Draft Combine Athletic Numbers Comparable
May 25th, 2011
◦Brandon Knight 3.07 ¾ court sprint is the 11th best since 2000 of drafted players. Players who were in the same speed range are Russell Westbrook, Mike Conley, Derrick Rose, Dwyane Wade, Speedy Claxton and Raymond Felton
◦Brandon Knight comes out less athletic than Derrick Rose but similar size and more athletic and stronger than Devin Harris and similar sized
◦Chris Singleton 3.09 at 6’9 is the fastest ever by a player taller than 6’7 (testing noted back to 2000) . Derrick Brown put down a 3.13 and Dwight Howard put down a 3.14
◦Chris Singleton has some freaky numbers. He is basically Andre Iguodala but he is 2+ inches taller.
Other interesting results:
◦Kemba Walker put up a Max Vert of 39 – the exact same as John Wall and high fliers Rodney Carney and Gerald Green
◦Kemba Walker tests out almost exactly the same as Chris Paul. Same height, 6 pounds heavier, wingspan and standing reach are an inch shorter, standing vertical the exact same, no step basically the same, max jump the same, Chris Paul did 10 benches to Walker’s 7.
◦ Derrick Williams tests out very similar to Michael Beasley and similar to Kevin Love but shorter by an inch. Similar vertical jump t both his reach is a little longer than both.
◦Jimmer vertical jump is not great but his agility testing was terrific. He comes out very similar to Toney Douglass of the Knicks and Jameer Nelson of the Magic. He is two inches taller than Nelson otherwise their numbers are similar.
