NBA Combine Invites go out today...

I don't understand this? Meaning that they aren't considered top prospects?

NBA teams telling me they prefer to use the Combine as an evaluation tool for (often younger) players they want to get a better feel for.

While guys like Ferrell and VanVleet undoubtedly "deserve" to get in, NBA teams know them intimately well, and prefer to see other prospects

Wiljter, Layman, Bolomby, Baldwin, Demeterius Jackson, Perry Ellis invited
 
Justin Jackson invited -- about half the field is filled as of now
 

So Zags reports on Murray, Maker, Malachi. Then Goodman reports on only Murray and Maker, citing agent Mike George. George is Tyler Ennis' agent. I wonder if (a) George was the source to both and (b) if Malachi has been in contact with George. Obviously he doesn't have the Canada roots as the other 3, but the SU connection is there. Also George works for Excel Sports Management, same as Jeff Schwartz who is MCW's agent.
 
I was hoping Malachi didn't get an invite, to make things easier.
