NBA Draft Combine Measurements in the Calipari Era

Earlier today, we found out the measurements for Kentucky’s three participants in the NBA Draft Combine, PJ Washington, Tyler Herro, and Keldon Johnson. Drew already went through the ins and outs of the numbers, which include body fat percentage, weight, hand size, height, reach and wingspan, so I thought it might be interesting to compare them to the rest of the combine participants in the Calipari Era. 

Here’s an impressive stat: since John Calipari took over ten years ago, 38 Kentucky players have participated in the NBA Draft Combine. That number doesn’t include players who chose not participate, such as Jarred Vanderbilt, Malik Monk, and Karl Towns, or players that did participate in the Combine but did not get measured, such as Jamal Murray. It also doesn’t include Kyle Wiltjer, who was invited to the Combine after finishing up his career at Gonzaga.

Here’s the entire chart before we break it down by category:
