Canadians in NBA Draft Combine
Andrew Wiggins did not attend the NBA draft combine, but still registered a 44″ Max Vertical – a result higher than anyone at the combine. Both Jahii Carson and Markel Brown recorded 43.5″, according to DraftExpress.com
Jordan Bachynski (Calgary, AB) measured in as the biggest overall prospect at the NBA Draft combine at 7’2 with shoes. He is also the #1 shot blocker coming out of the NCAA. We’ve said it time and time again, he’s a dark horse in the draft, that teams will be interested.
