UConn senior forward Alex Karaban is among the players who have made a strong impression at the Draft Combine this week, according to ESPN’s Jeremy Woo and Jeff Borzello.

Karaban entered the combine ranked No. 32 by ESPN. He was the best shooter during Monday’s drills and improved his standing vertical leap by 5.5 inches since his appearance at the 2024 combine.

Baylor guard Cameron Carr, Michigan forward Morez Johnson and Houston center Chris Cenac have also stood out at the combine. On the flip side, poor shooting by Arizona forward Koa Peat could lead him to consider withdrawing his name despite being ranked as a first-rounder entering this week.
