Inside Carolina reported Tuesday that a trio of former UNC men’s basketball players–Coby White, Nassir Little and Cameron Johnson–were each invited to participate in the upcoming 2019 NBA Draft Combine.
The combine will take place in Chicago from May 14-19 and will give these prospects a chance to showcase their skills against other top flight competition in front of NBA coaches, general managers and scouts ahead of June’s NBA Draft.
Players go through measurements, interviews, various drills and five-on-five scrimmages at the invitation-only combine.
Although White, Little and Johnson will be without their former teammates Luke Maye and Kenny Williams in Chicago, those two players have had their next moves determined as well.
Maye will be at the NBA G-League Elite Camp from May 12-14, while Williams was invited to participate in the Professional Basketball Combine from May 21-22.
