The 2026 NBA Draft Combine in Chicago has delivered major storylines — and Albert Ghim and Corey Tulaba of Locked On NBA Draft with No Ceilings are breaking it all down.
Fresh off reacting to the lottery results, the guys dive deep into Days 1 and 2 of the combine, where measurements, athletic testing, and shooting drills are reshaping the draft board. Who helped themselves? Who raised questions? And what do the numbers actually mean for where these guys land on June 23–24 at Barclays Center?
AJ Dybantsa put on a show, posting a 42-inch max vertical jump that confirmed his status as a physical freak at the position. Morez Johnson Jr. impressed with a 39-inch vertical and the second-fastest pro lane time at the combine, while also showing an expanded shooting range. Kingston Flemings turned in one of the best all-around combine performances, leading the event in the three-point star drill and finishing top five in the max vertical, pro lane agility test, shuttle run, and sprint time — reinforcing why scouts love his complete game.
Albert and Corey put the numbers in context, separate the noise from what actually matters, and give you their honest takes on the biggest winners and losers from Chicago.
