Penn State Basketball doesn’t exactly have a history of sending players to the NBA. In fact, the last time a Penn State basketball player was drafted was Calvin Booth in 1999.
Furthermore, the Nittany Lions have never had a player taken in the first round of the NBA Draft. This all had the opportunity to change with Tony Carr participating in the NBA Combine last week.
Did I mention that he’s the first Penn State basketball player ever to participate in the NBA Combine?
The projection that everyone kept hearing for Tony Carr was picks 25-40.
