NBA Draft 2025

Sure, Ace Bailey is 6' 10", if you're rounding up from 6' 8.75".

From the NBA Combine and Tankathon:

Dylan Harper

6' 4.50" without shoes
6' 5.75" with shoes
6' 10.50" wingspan

Ace Bailey

6' 7.50" without shoes
6' 8.75" with shoes
7' 0.50" wingspan

Colleges tend to use player heights WITH shoes. Ergo, Dylan has always been listed as 6'6 which is fact (see above).
Ace would be rounded to 6'9 and look at any photos of them together and they appear with an obvious difference of 3 to 4 inches. A few of you must have snuck into the locker room to view them barefoot.🤔
Ergo, height is not an issue for either player in the NBA for the positions they would play. This argument is moot.
 
Since the NCAA allowed athletes to cash in on NIL (name, image, and likeness), the number of basketball players declaring early for the NBA draft has steadily declined. In 2021, 363 players—including international players and NCAA athletes—entered their names. This year, the total has dropped to 106 players, the fewest since 2016. Fifty-one “non-international” players have since opted out, leaving just 32 non-international players in the draft.

He was not listed in their latest mock this morning, though.

Frankly, that might be better for him, then going in the late 50s. If he's not drafted, he'll get his share of workout offers, and can figure out which one he feels gives him the best shot of making a team (even if it's on a two-way).

We’ll see of course, but fun to think about.

They will all be pros. The question is where. I am guessing 3 in the G league and one overseas, maybe a two-way contract in the mix. But I also think 3 have a chance at finding their way into the NBA in some capacity at some point.

Think the most likely early fit is Scott, the most likely longer-term project is Kadary, and the most likely "I have no idea what will happen here" factor is RJ.

I agree with this 3/4 will be on at least a G League roster by next week
