MrsTylerKSR

The NBA Draft Combine is underway in Chicago, and yesterday, prospects underwent measurements and testing. How did Kentucky’s three participants, Cason Wallace, Oscar Tshiebwe, and Chris Livingston, stack up against the rest? Check out their measurements in the table below (complete list here).

PLAYER	HAND LENGTH	HAND WIDTH	HEIGHT W/O SHOES	STANDING REACH	WEIGHT	WINGSPAN
Oscar Tshiebwe	9.75″	10.25″	6’7.25”	9’0.00”	253.6	7’3.50”
Chris Livingston	8.50″	9.00″	6’6.00”	8’8.50”	219.2	6’11.25”
Cason Wallace	8.50″	9.25″	6’2.50”	8’5.00”	195.2	6’8.50”

Here’s how some of those numbers compare to the measurements from Kentucky’s Pro Day back in October:

PLAYER	HEIGHT W/O SHOES (COMBINE)	HEIGHT (UK PRO DAY)	WEIGHT (COMBINE)	WEIGHT (UK ROSTER)	WINGSPAN (COMBINE)	WINGSPAN (UK PRO DAY)
Oscar Tshiebwe	6’7.25”	6’8”	253.6	260	7’3.50”	7’4”
Chris Livingston	6’6.00”	6’6.00”	219.2	220	6’11.25”	6’8”
Cason Wallace	6’2.50”	6’3.25”	195.2	193	6’8.50”	6’6”

When it comes to agility, the Cats mostly finished in the middle of the pack, except when it comes to the lane agility drill, in which players shuffle around the four corners of the paint. Oscar Tshiebwe recorded the second slowest time, 12.26 seconds, and Chris Livingston the eighth slowest, 11.65.

PLAYER	LANE AGILITY TIME (SECONDS)	3/4 SPRINT (SECONDS)	STANDING VERTICAL LEAP	MAX VERTICAL LEAP
Chris Livingston	11.65 (8th slowest)	3.27	30.5″	37.0″
Oscar Tshiebwe	12.26 (2nd slowest)	3.32	29.5″	32.5″
Cason Wallace	10.82	3.34	28.0″	36.0″

According to Michael Visenberg, Oscar had the fifth-best standing vertical reach among centers at the draft and the sixth-best max vertical reach. Chris Livingston tied with Cam Whitmore for fourth among small forwards in standing vertical reach at 11’3″. Cason Wallace was third among point guards.

What about shooting? Pistons Draft Talk is at the Combine and tweeted out some of the numbers. Oscar made an eye-popping 12 of 25 threes (48%), as did Chris Livingston. Cason Wallace did not participate in yesterday’s shooting drills.

Chris Livingston will not participate in scrimmages

Scrimmages at the Combine take place tomorrow and Thursday. Last night, Jonathan Wasserman shared the rosters. As expected, Oscar Tshiebwe will participate and Cason Wallace will not; however, Chris Livingston is also opting out, which could indicate he already has a guarantee from a team.
