There was some confusion last week when former Kansas forward Andrew Wiggins announced that he would be skipping the Chicago NBA Draft Combine in preparation of the NBA Draft next month. While his skills can’t be questioned, there are still some that believe the young man has more to show the scouts in person before he’s selected.
Well the folks at the
decided to give everyone a small glimpse into what the scouts will be missing out on as they posted a photo to their Instagam account on Thursday with the simple caption of, “No Combine necessary.”
Okay, that’s impressive. I don’t even care that some people are going to say, “Well, yeah, he should be doing that!” No, no human being should be able to jump that high in the air, straight from the ground flat-footed.
Wiggins isn’t the only one that the scouts will be missing out on at the Combine as his former teammate Joel Embiid and Duke freshman Jabari Parker have also decided to skip out on the event.
All three are expected to be sure-fire lottery picks come next month when the draft gets underway, even without putting their skills on display in person in Chicago.
