0:14'Prayer is answered': Nick Boyd tosses up shot in traffic to clinch Wisconsin win over No. 15 Purdue
Draft Scouting Report
Pro Comparison: Scotty Pippen Jr.
Summary
Undersized, light scoring guard dripping in swag and self-belief that he can score on anybody. Impacted winning at FAU and San Diego State before transforming into one of the best guards in the country at Wisconsin.
About
- Second-team All-Big Ten and Big Ten All-Tournament Team selection at Wisconsin in 2025-26.
- Second-team All-Mountain West at San Diego State in 2023-24.
- Starting guard on the FAU team that advanced to the 2023 Final Four.
Strengths
- Dawg. Boyd takes winning seriously and is an infectious moral-raiser with sky-high competitive spirit. Takes on any challenge and believes he is the best player on the floor every single time.
- Has a ton of answers to the test offensively with a barrage of pull-ups, stepbacks, floaters and creative layup packages in his finishing arsenal. Shot 37% from 3-point range, 48% on pull-ups, 43% on floaters and 56% on layups at Wisconsin. He’s a true three-level scoring threat, but does most of his damage as a driver to the cup with slithery rack attacks.
- Posted a 2.4-to-1, assist-to-turnover ratio last season and can really run a team without making a ton of mistakes.
Weaknesses
- Played five years of college basketball so there’s some wear on the tires and he’s close to a finished product at 25 years old.
- Pretty slight frame. 6-foot-1 on a good day with a 6-2 wingspan and there aren’t many bricks in the britches.
- How does he hold up defensively against the elite athletes that litter the NBA game?
Combine Data
- Wingspan: 6 feet, 2.5 inches
- Standing vertical leap: 30.5 inches
- Standing reach: 8 feet
- Lane agility: 10.78 seconds
- Three quarter sprint: 3.07 seconds
- Max vertical leap: 36 inches

Warriors' Nick Boyd: Scores 14 points on six shots
Boyd registered 14 points (5-6 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal over 18 minutes during Sunday's 104-79 Las Vegas Summer League win over the Thunder.
Boyd made the most of his minutes by missing only one shot attempt, and he finished with a plus-8 differential in the win. Boyd is on a training camp deal with the Warriors, but it will be tough for him to make the regular-season roster given Golden State's depth at the guard positions.

Warriors' Nick Boyd: Another solid SL outing
Boyd logged 13 points (5-13 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five assists, two steals and one rebound in 25 minutes during Monday's 100-79 California Classic Summer League loss to the Nets.
Boyd continued his strong play at Summer League Monday, leading the team in assists and matching a team high in steals. Over his last two games at the California Classic, Boyd averaged 12.0 points, 7.5 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 2.0 steals in 26.0 minutes per contest. Boyd entered Summer League on an Exhibit 10 contract, so his impressive numbers could help him find a more substantial opportunity.

Warriors' Nick Boyd: Posts double-double at SL
Boyd recorded 11 points (4-7 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 assists, seven rebounds and a steal in 27 minutes during Sunday's 91-85 loss to the Kings at the California Classic Summer League.
Boyd bounced back with an impressive all-around performance, finishing just three rebounds shy of a triple-double while leading the Warriors Blue in both rebounds and assists. After struggling in his Summer League debut by shooting just 2-for-10 from the field, he responded with a much more efficient outing in his second appearance. Boyd entered Summer League on an Exhibit 10 contract, but performances like this could help strengthen his case for a more substantial opportunity.

Boyd signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Warriors on Thursday, according to ProMondo Sports.
