*All measurements in shoes*
J'Covan Brown, Texas
This wasn't a bad year for body fat percentage, so J'Covan Brown ending up with the worst isn't as bad as it sounds, but still 12.5% for a 6-2 guard isn't very good.
Tu Holloway, Xavier
Holloway is the only player to check in under 6 feet, while is makes absolutely no difference to how Holloway projects to the NBA (which isn't very well) but there are certainly some teams that will knock him down a bit, which isn't good for a boarderline draftable player in the first place.
Festus Ezeli, Vanderbilt
Ezeli came in with a good height, weight, and wingspan (6-11½, 264, 7-5¾) but oddly his standing reach was only 8-10, which is good for a power forward, but below average for a center.
John Henson, North Carolina
Henson was mostly a winner, with great measurements at 6-10½ with a 7-5 wingspan and a crazy 9-3½ standing reach, good for tops in the draft. The worry is though, after 3 full years in college, he still only weighed in at 216 and raises the questions about whether Henson can ever bulk up.
Darius Johnson-Odom, Marquette
At 6-3, Johnson-Odom is about an average size for a point guard and undersized for a shooting guard, but unfortunately for Johnson-Odom, he's naturally a small forward...
Kevin Jones, West Virginia
Despite the fact that Jones measured a decent standing reach for a power forward (8-9½), measuring in at under 6-8 in shoes won't do him any favors when trying to get drafted in the second round.
Jeff Taylor, Vanderbilt
Jeff Taylor a great defender and a terrific athlete, so it probably doesn't mean anything, but it is worth noting that Taylor's wingspan (6-6¼) is only a forth of an inch longer than his height without shoes (6-6).
Tyler Zeller, North Carolina
Zeller came in with a solid height and weight (7-0½, 247) but he's not particularly long (7-0 wingspan) nor does he have a great reach for a center (8-8).
