Is that the same thing they do in the NFL combine?
Yes, it is. Something to note is that the top 10 NFL standing verticals every year at the combine are much better than pretty much anyone you can think of in the NBA... Ever.

Just keep that in mind when comparing the two is all.

Couldn't have gone with a diff instrumental for that music bed? Like something from this decade even..
I feel like Lindell is slept on a little bit so I felt like a song with a title of "Remember the Name" seemed appropriate. Next time I'll ask everyone on here if they have any song suggestions. I'm no expert in video making. Just put something together quickly for those who couldn't see the game.

With Jackson and Wigginton, we're going to resemble KU's 2-combo guard backcourt of the last couple of years.

Sign me up, as long as one of them can finish.

KU was also able to play 4 "guards" without going small. Must be nice.

Kinda sad when your extremely hard efforts are marginalized by someone's insignificant criticisms.

Thanks for that. LW sure does look the part with a B12-ready body and skills.

Unfortunately I expect to get criticism every time I post something on here but I've learned to just fight through it because I know the majority of the people will appreciate it.

I watched the game, but was still hoping you'd put something together. Thanks, Thompson.

Anyone follow Nate Duncan? He's an NBA guy and was completely off on his assessment of Wigginton.

Zagoria: Top 10 recruiting storylines coming out of the Nike Hoop Summit

8. Who was the best Canadian player in the Nike Hoop Summit?
The Canucks had five guys on the World Team roster, including 6-6 Montverde (FL) Academy sophomore R.J. Barrett, a future pro who is being recruited by the likes of Kansas, Kentucky, Arizona, Texas, Michigan, USC, Virginia Tech, Virginia, Villanova,
If you’re looking for a senior, try Iowa State-bound guard Lindell Wigginton, ranked No. 42 in the class out of Oak Hill (VA) Academy.

More praise for Lindell... considering the rave reviews he got from numerous scouts and commentators this week the idea of Wigginton has really raised his profile. If he keeps up this trajectory we maybe sweating out a decision for him to turn pro or not after a couple of years. Of course that would be a good thing because of the success that would have come with it.

Not worried about it. Excited to have him, but surely he'll have plenty of growing pains ahead. Did anyone notice last night on two occasions he was on fire to the rim and got clear by the defenders, but put it too hard off the glass? Three point shot could use some work. All in good time, tho. Will be fun to watch him progress. Certainly seems like he is going to always be in attack mode. Like you said, if his trajectory rises that fast, then that's a good thing.

Yes, the length last night bothered him and he nearly missed the rim on two layups once he cleared the defense. But that frontline is as long as any he'll see next year. Sexton is as good as any defender he'll go against, too.

On the flip-side, he showed great natural pg instincts and control, particularly for an all-star game. Surround him with shooters like Brown, Jackson, Lewis, Edwards/McNeil, and possibly Young, as well as finishers like Juiston, Young, Lard, Kasongo, Babb, and Lewis...he's going to be capable.
