Carter Bryant Shines at NBA Draft Combine Amid Expectations of First-Round Pick
Chicago, IL – Arizona men’s basketball standout Carter Bryant made a notable impression at the 2025 NBA Draft Combine, measuring 6 feet 6.5 inches and weighing 214.8 pounds. The promising talent, hailing from Riverside, California, boasted a wingspan of 6 feet 11.75 inches and a standing reach of 8 feet 10 inches, showcasing his physical attributes that NBA teams covet.
Despite his impressive measurements, Bryant has opted out of the 5-on-5 scrimmages scheduled for Wednesday. After a solid freshman season with the Arizona Wildcats, where he played 37 games with five starts, the 19-year-old now faces a pivotal decision: he can withdraw from the draft and return to college basketball until May 28.
Bryant’s performance during the 2022-2023 season has drawn considerable attention, with many analysts projecting him as a first-round pick. The Rookie Scale’s consensus board places him at No. 15 overall, reflecting the optimism surrounding his potential. In his collegiate career thus far, Bryant averaged 6.5 points and 4.1 rebounds per game, shooting 37.1% from beyond the arc. He has also been an asset defensively, recording 35 steals and 37 blocks throughout the season.
His best performances included two games where he scored a season-high of 14 points against Cincinnati and Iowa State, contributing to his increased minutes during crucial postseason matchups. As the combine continues through Sunday, Bryant remains a player to watch, with teams keenly evaluating his skills and potential in anticipation of the NBA Draft.
