With the 2023 NBA Draft Lottery in the books, it's time to look ahead to the main event.
The NBA Draft Combine, taking place throughout the week of May 15, allows top prospects from around the world to showcase their size and skills in front of league scouts. With draft night just over a month away, it represents the last chance for young players to show they have what it takes to succeed at the highest level.
The Spurs went home with the grand prize on lottery night after landing the No. 1 overall pick. They are almost certain to use it on French phenom Victor Wembanyama, a 7-5 forward with an absurd blend of size and skill. However, Wembanyama is noticeably absent at the NBA Draft Combine this week due to the ongoing LNB Pro A season over in France.
Despite the projected top pick choosing not to attend, the combine helps provide a detailed look at the physical attributes of many of this year's top prospects. It will serve as an invaluable tool for NBA scouts and front offices as they put together their draft boards over the coming weeks.
