2023 NBA Draft Combine measurements, results: Purdue's Zach Edey stands tall with Victor Wembanyama in France

USATSI

CHICAGO -- The numbers from the 2023 NBA Draft Combine are in, and the results are jarring-but-not-terribly-surprising. As the league finalized testing in the Windy City among the participants at this year's event, Purdue big man Zach Edey -- quite literally! -- stood well above the rest of the attendees, coming in at a towering 7-foot-3.25 and a wingspan just shy of 7-foot-11.

Edey cleared the rest of the attendees by multiple inches as one of only two players who measured at 7-foot or taller, thanks in part to the decision of Victor Wembanyama to stay in France and not attend as his Mets 92 season continues to play out. His wingspan was also well clear of the next-longest player measured, coming in more than five inches longer than Creighton big man Ryan Kalkbrenner.

In the agility and athletic testing, it was Tennessee's Julian Phillips whose performance helped him stand -- no, no, leap -- to the top of the leaderboard at some of the major events. Phillips posted a 43-inch max vertical and a 36-inch standing vertical, both of which topped the list of those who participated. The aforementioned Edey had the lowest max vert at 29.5 inches.

Finally, in the lane agility and shuttle run sections of testing, North Dakota State big man Grant Nelson shocked the Combine audience with a week-best 9.99. Nelson, like many others below, did not participate in the shuttle run, but did complete the three-quarter court sprint and finished well there, too. Belmont's Ben Sheppard and Kansas' Gradey Dick led the way in testing in the shuttle run with the only sub 3.0-second times.

Most notable perhaps of the results and measurements from the week of course was the list of those who opted not to take part. In addition to Wembanyama, projected top five picks Scoot Henderson and Brandon Miller chose not to participate, with many of the top players already solidified in their standing in the draft with very little to gain.
