There is no flashy 40 yard dash number to discuss at the NBA Combine, but there is one piece of information that is even more important: wingspan.
An overlooked trait for years, wingspan is becoming the new physical metric of choice. This measurement is so important, in fact, that the NBA Combine is now more important than the NFL Combine. This year, the NBA Combine runs from May 11th-15th, and will give Suns fans insight to many of the top draft prospects.
The 40 yard dash is the most often cited piece of information from the NFL Combine, but there is little proof that a fast 40 time leads to production on the football field.
