CHICAGO - Brandon Clarke was viewed as a bit of an enigma entering the 2019 NBA Draft Combine.
Clarke, who averaged 16.9 points and 8.6 rebounds and led the team with 117 blocked shots at Gonzaga last season, finished first among frontcourt players with a 40 1/2-inch max vertical and was top two at his position in lane agility and standing vertical. Clarke is currently projected as a lottery pick but understands his final standing will be determined by private team workouts starting next week.
Reddish said he “absolutely” has chip on his shoulder and has something to prove, but he felt it was valuable to show NBA teams he learned how to share the spotlight. Fall’s wingspan was measured at 8-foot-2 1/4 — yes, he can dunk flatfooted — but he was not an aggressive presence in five-on-five Friday during the final game of the afternoon session.
“Guys are bigger, much more physical. That’s one of the problems,” said Samanic, measured at 6-9 1/2 barefoot in Chicago and officially weighed in at 227 pounds. “I’m playing as a power forward. There are some big boys here, also in the NBA. Just fighting and not backing down.”
