NBA Draft 2019: 3 Prospects to keep an eye on at NBA Draft Combine
By Chris Kern
As the Memphis Grizzlies are preparing for the NBA Draft Combine here are 3 prospects that they should focus in on in Chicago.
The NBA Draft Combine is an exciting time for everyone involved, from the players to each organization they all have so much to prove. The Memphis Grizzlies are heading into an offseason that could determine the next decade of the franchise.
It gets underway with the NBA Draft Lottery Tuesday night to determine where, if at all, they will be picking in the draft. This event takes place at 8:30 p.m. E.T. in Chicago being televised on ESPN. This is a monumental lottery for many teams as some franchise will be changed by Zion Williamson while others could add a top pick to a potential package to trade for Anthony Davis.
After the lottery, we have the NBA Draft Combine where teams will get a chance for an up-close look at 66 of the top prospects. With only 60 spots not all of them will be drafted, but all of these players are talented and should be considered bringing to Memphis.
