Tennessee's Jahmai Mashack receives invite to NBA's G League Elite Camp

Tennessee Basketball’s Jahmai Mashack has received an invitation to the NBA’s G League Elite Camp this weekend at Wintrust Arena in Chicago. Igor Milicic Jr. also received an invite, but Zakai Zeigler was not one of the 45 players invited to the event.
A select number of standouts from the G League camp will earn invites to the NBA Draft Combine. The NBA Draft will be held June 25 at Barclays Center in New York.
The 6-foot-4, 202-pound Mashack, from Fontana, Calif., played in 137 games over the last four seasons at Tennessee, averaging 4.2 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 1.1 steals per game while becoming known as one of the best perimeter defenders in the country.
Mashack was a finalist for the 2025 Naismith Defensive Player of the Year Award and was on the 2025 SEC All-Defensive Team.
Chaz Lanier on Friday received an invitation to the NBA Draft Combine, which will be held May 11-18 in Chicago. He’s projected as the No. 41 overall pick in ESPN’s latest NBA mock draft, going to the Golden State Warriors in the second round.
