So much of the 2025 NBA Draft discussion surrounds the Duke Blue Devils, as it tends to do.

Cam Christie was one of the 78 players invited to attend the 2024 NBA Draft Combine. But more than that, many draft experts view Christie as a potential first round pick. In his lone season at Minnesota, the brother of NBA wing Max Christie shot 39.1% from three on 5.4 attempts per game. At 6-6, NBA teams are hoping that the […]
USC freshman guard Bronny James, the eldest son of Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James, will enter the 2024 NBA Draft while maintaining his college eligibility and will also enter the NCAA transfer portal, he announced Friday on Instagram. James was sidelined for five months after suffering cardiac arrest in July due to a congenital […]
Zach Edey has become one of the most polarising college athletes in years, as many doubt if he has what it takes to make it to the NBA. Both fans and experts have been outspoken about how his stature playing against him in the big leagues, while others are convinced that his combination of skill […]
