College Players Declaring for NBA

Per Goodman;

Some guys that have not received invite to combine: Abdul Malik-Abu, Devin Williams, Derrick Jones, Chris Obekpa, Jimmy Hall, Jalen Moore.
 
@VUhoops;

Villanova guard Josh Hart invited to the 2016 NBA Draft Combine
 
Per Goodman;

NC State forward Abdul Malik-Abu told ESPN he is “seriously considering transferring or hiring an agent.”

Former Johnny recruit certainly has spectrum covered. :)

Several NBA teams have Seton Hall's @IsaiahW_15 in the 20-30 range on their board. Was invited to Combine.
 
Per Zach B;

Was told Isaiah Whitehead has been asked to workout for several NBA teams, but has opted to wait for NBA Combine and train in Vegas. #hallin
 
Jonathan Givony – ‏@DraftExpress

Some standouts from first game of the #NBACombine: Robert Carter, Georges Niang, Kay Felder, Cheick Diallo, Gary Payton II, Joel Bolomboy.
 
had it on as background noise earlier, and they talked about Diallo a lot at the beginning. I still can't believe he's going to go high, potential or not.

Fran, Jay, and crew joked that the headline tomorrow would be that Self held Diallo back. But they were probably only 75 percent joking.

Some standouts from the second game of the #NBACombine today: DeAndre Bembry, Pascal Siakam, Malcolm Brogdon, Chinanu Onuaku, Ben Bentil.

Josh Hart to work out with Sixers. Still 50-50 on decision of college vs. draft.
 
Some interesting commentary on Bentil & Diallo from Givony, a very knowledgeable evaluator;

Happened to catch a little bit of the action and for the short time I watched the announcers were talking about Diallo. The consensus was that he's going to need 2-3 years to develop but because of his athleticism teams will be willing to take a chance on him. Question is where is he going to spend that time? End of the bench, stashed in the D Leage, or as Bilas said another year back at KU, but he was quick to follow up by saying that's never going to happen.
 
Jay Williams just said he really liked Diallo and talking to scouts said he's rising up the draft board.

I was hoping Kay Felder would drop to the GSW, but it looks like scouts are loving him despite size.
 
No surprise;

Syracuse Basketball – ‏@syrbasketball

RT @chadfordinsider: Both Malachi Richardson & Cheick Diallo told teams in interviews today that they've decided to stay in the draft.
 
Richardson said yesterday he was still 50-50 and no decision had been made. I guess he decided last night or is a huge liar.
 
Per Goodman;

Kansas big man Cheick Diallo told ESPN he is signing with agent, leaving college after one season.

Seton Hall's Isaiah Whitehead will likely take his decision to the wire -- on the 25th. Has four workouts set up between now and then.

These guys must have really done well on their final exams this semester. I'm sure they made every class and never missed an assignment.
