Nevada forward Caleb Martin was among the six 2018 NBA Draft prospects the Los Angeles Lakers hosted for a pre-draft workout. It provided Martin with an opportunity to reunite with Florida guard and former AAU teammate Jalen Hudson.
They, and the other attendees, were put through a workout that focused heavily on defense. “That’s one thing they keyed on right when we came in the door,” Martin said.
“We all got to this level because we know we can put the ball in the basket. It’s another thing to separate yourself by playing defense.”
Martin began his collegiate career at NC State, then after two seasons transferred to Nevada.
