Overview
- The NBA named 73 players to the combine on Friday, with the event set for May 10–17 in Chicago and opening with the draft lottery on May 10.
- Projected top picks AJ Dybantsa, Darryn Peterson and Cameron Boozer lead the field, with recent mock drafts and polls giving Dybantsa a slight edge for No. 1.
- Invitees must complete physicals, share medical histories, and take measurements, drills and tests, with non‑excused no‑shows ruled ineligible for this draft under CBA rules.
- Medical results will be sent only to teams in a player’s projected draft range, which raises the stakes for health reviews, including Peterson’s missed time for a hamstring issue, an ankle roll and cramping.
- Standouts from the May 8–10 G League Combine can earn late call‑ups to the main combine.
