    Tim Hardaway Jr. 31.5" standing vert. 37.5" max vert. He's having a very good day.

    Vander Blue, who wasn't even on the initial list of invites, testing out very well. Smells like another 2nd Round steal out of Marquette.

    Duke C Mason Plumlee said he believes he will workout with the Blazers. "I'm a guy who is ready to come in and play right away," he said.

    Jason Quick ‏@jwquick 32s
    Plumlee touted his length and athleticism. "I'd like to be with a team that likes to get out and run," Plumlee said.

    Chris Haynes ‏@ChrisBHaynes 2m
    Duke C Mason Plumlee, 23, says him staying four years shouldn't be a factor, adding #Blazers G @Dame_Lillard proved everybody wrong.

    Victor Oladipo didn't believe IU teammate Cody Zeller ran the 3/4 sprint faster until he heard his time. Then he said, "Let's do it again."

    Based on NBA Combine, draft stock of Indiana guys Cody Zeller and Victor Oladipo flying high. Same with Michigan's Tim Hardaway Jr.

    Jason Quick ‏@jwquick 1m
    By the way, the French center Gobert says his goal is to be a top 7 pick. Not sure that's going to happen.

    NBA Guru ‏@NBAGuru 51s
    Ben McLemore with a time of 3.27 in the sprint, good for 6th place so far. http://instagram.com/p/Za4Bq9CsID/

    Tony Mitchell just threw down an alley-oop with his head easily above the rim. Can't wait for his verticals.

    NBA Guru ‏@NBAGuru 27s
    Tony Mitchell just told us he's going to top the Combine-best of 42" max vert; said he's going for 44".

    Jason Quick ‏@jwquick 1m
    On the same trip that Olshey made to France in late April to scout Gobert, he stopped in Croatia to scout 6-10 SF Dario Saric.

    This is one of those: I wonder why they care? stats. Kind of like: how tall are you to the top of your head with and without shoes? You don't play basketball with your head. It's fun trivia, but not that important. Instead of comparing how far off the ground you can get your feet, I'm more interested in how high and wide you can get your hands? How quickly can you move side to side? :dunno:

    Cine: Tony Mitchell's 38" max vertical in GIF form. #NBACombine #loop http://cinemagr.am/show/151718964 #loop

    Chad Ford ‏@chadfordinsider 1m
    Tony Mitchell. 33.5" standing vert. 38" max vert. Great numbers for a power forward. That + solid measurements help his 1st rd cause

    I'm always interested in the hand size. Mbakwe has the biggest hands in this draft class at 11.5 in wide. Schroeder has huge hands for a PG (10.5"). Muscala has surprisingly small hands for a center at 9 inches.

    Cody Zeller tied Joakim Noah for the highest max vertical jump by a 7-footer (in shoes) in the last 10 NBA Draft Combines.

    Victor Oladipo told us he bench pressed 185lbs 15 times. Great number for a guard.

    Murray State's Isaiah Canaan looking impressive in PG drills right now in 2-on-2 action. #NBACombine

    On the flip side, the less a big center leaves the ground, the less chance he will have in getting hurt. (No that is not a proven fact, just makes sense to me)

    After watching Siva, Pressey, and McCallum fly for some nasty dunks a minute ago, think they could challenge the 42" max vert best

    Jeff Goodman ‏@GoodmanCBS 56s
    Phil Pressey and point guards set to do vertical. Pressey said he has gotten 43 in past. Oladipo had 42 earlier today.
