Upon further review, two familiar names were noticeably missing from the 66-man roster: Tres Tinkle and Ethan Thompson from Oregon State. The combine is a chance for young athletes to showcase their talents amongst five on five play, shooting, strength, and agility drills and those participating hope it leads to them hearing their name called in the upcoming NBA Draft.
