The NBA Draft Combine is underway, and official measurements have been revealed for multiple high-profile prospects.

The only thing that has spread faster than the wind in Chicago this week is word of Cedric Coward's presence and performance at the Combine. He measured 6-5.25 barefoot with a shocking 7-2.25 wingspan and 8-10 standing reach, making him one of the longest wings in the class with a plus-8 (!) wingspan.

With the draft order now set for the top 14 picks, the NBA turned its attention toward the court at Wintrust Arena on Tuesday to begin analyzing the measurements and skill sets of the 2025 prospects.

Dallas, somehow, won the No. 1 pick. What went on in the lottery room? And what were people talking about before and after?

All but certain to be the No. 1 pick, Montverde Academy alum Cooper Flagg wowed observers as a Duke freshman with his poise, confidence and ability to shoot from anywhere on the court.

The Inquirer was one of 14 media outlets inside the drawing room, where assistant general manager Ned Cohen watched the Sixers move up to the third pick.

Well, the NBA Draft Lottery gods have a sense of humor. So much for the idea of Cooper Flagg going to a 20-win team. Instead, a statistically improbable Dallas Mavericks-San Antonio Spurs-Philadelphia 76ers-Charlotte Hornets top four upended all our previous assumptions about what might happen in the lead-up to the NBA Draft.

NBA Draft Lottery results sparked strong reactions. Kevin Durant is among those to chime in after a few teams with some of the worst win-loss records fell outside the top three.
