Alex Sarr is one of the draft's most physically gifted prospects, standing 7'1 with outstanding athletic ability. He has the potential to emerge as the best defender in this class with his ability to cover ground fluidly, and can also stretch the floor from beyond the arc.

NEWS: Alex Sarr, the projected No. 2 pick, is entering the NBA draft, he told Malika Andrews on ESPN's NBA Today.

Portland, Nike Hoop Summit scrimmage. Packed gym of NBA executives and decision makers here to watch a loaded USA Basketball squad take on the Portland Generals.

What kind of NBA prospect is Hansen Yang? I sat down with our friends at ESPN-Tencent to discuss the 18-year old, 7'2 Chinese big man who is lighting up NBA draft analytics models.

Yves Missi is one of the draft's most physically gifted prospects, standing 6'11 with outstanding mobility, reach and explosiveness, leading the Big 12 with 63 dunks. He's been playing organized basketball for less than 3 years, giving him significant upside to grow into.

NEWS: Baylor's Yves Missi, a projected top-20 pick, is forgoing his remaining college eligibility and entering the 2024 NBA draft, he told ESPN.

Isaiah Collier is an outstanding ball-handler who lives at the rim, using his strong frame to finish through contact and get to the free-throw line. His flair for changing speeds and passing off a live dribble has obvious appeal in this class with his scoring instincts.

Rob Dillingham's explosiveness, jittery handle, live-dribble passing and ability to hit pull-up, stepback and sidestep 3s made him one of college basketball's most difficult covers, giving him arguably the most star power of any prospect in this draft class.

NEWS: Kentucky's Rob Dillingham, a projected top-5 pick, is hiring an agent (Klutch Sports Group) and entering the NBA draft, he told Malika Andrews on ESPN's NBA Today.

Armel Traore has declared for the 2024 NBA Draft, he told ESPN. The 6'9 forward with a 7'3 wingspan is having a productive season in the French first division, averaging 10.3 points and 7.4 rebounds in 25 minutes per game for Blois.

37+10 for Zach Edey in the national championship game. Had some bad moments defensively but showed what makes him interesting with the way he screens, catches, scores inside, finishes in space and competes. Potentially out of gas after playing so many minutes the past few weeks.

Great game for Tristen Newton helping UConn win the national championship with 20 points, 7 assists, 0 turnovers. Executed UConn's game plan perfectly, getting the ball where it needs to be, and made big shots all night, showing his scoring instincts and versatility.

Donovan Clingan's 7-foot-7 wingspan played a major role in UConn's national championship game win over Purdue, contesting countless shots inside the arc all game. Didn't finish with an eye-popping line, but did his job like he has all season.

Went on NBA Today with Malika Andrews to talk about the big Donovan Clingan vs Zach Edey matchup tonight from an NBA draft perspective.

Trevon Brazile is the type of fluid, explosive big man who could help his standing in the NBA pre-draft process, bringing a coveted combination of length, floor-spacing ability, finishing prowess, mobility defending on the perimeter and instincts as a rim-protector.

NEWS: Arkansas' Trevon Brazile is hiring an agent and declaring for the NBA draft, he told ESPN.

'Arkansas made a big hire with John Calipari. I'm happy for the program, but am going out for my dreams. I'm all the way, 100% in the NBA Draft.'
