THIS is what I found odd for no other reason that I didn't/don't know what it means. I asked the question and I still don't. Does it mean he wasn't invited or he just chose not to? A lot of guys choose not to(usually the top guys) because all a bad showing can do is hurt you.

Andrej is obviously showing great measurables and is mid tier in the shooting drills, but as we've seen with most guys.... measurables and drills don't always track with production. The 5 v 5 would paint a MUCH better picture.

So, again.....I don't know what this decision means or who made it.

It means he is using this week to gather feedback and isn't hyper focused on staying in knowing he's going back to school.

Wouldn't participating in the 5 on 5 give the scouts more comprehensive feedback to provide? Broad jumps, arm length and shooting open jumpers is great, but isn't live competition amongst those invites to the combine the best barometer?

That's the part that I don't understand. If you're going to go through the process, why not go through the whole process?

I'm sure there are dozens of things that goes into these decisions, so I'll take your word for it that whatever he's completed is giving him the information he came for.

He's coming back.

He does want to go to the NBA (As does everyone), but the draft stock is just not there right now to qualify him going and passing up five times the money in school.

Next year I expect him to have a chance at the first round if he can make improvements in various parts of his game.

Needs to change that funky release on his shot but that’s very hard to do

Love all these Illini in NBA

- TSJ
- Ayo
- KJ
- Will
- Keaton (next year)

Plus these are not bench players. Gotta rev up the recruiting.

Whether you like the Sleepers guys or not, they have an interesting take on Andrej in the draft. It's worth watching if for no other reason than the entertainment value of them espousing conspiracy theories--which they readily admit to doing.
