Michigan State's Max Christie, Michigan's Moussa Diabate to attend NBA Draft Combine

Michigan State’s Max Christie and Michigan’s Moussa Diabate have landed coveted invites to next week’s NBA Draft Combine.

The league revealed its field of expected participants for the pre-draft showcase, which will be held May 16-22 in Chicago, on Tuesday night and the two freshmen were among the 76 players on the list.

Receiving an invitation is a promising sign for Christie and Diabate, considering invites are determined by a vote among NBA front offices. Over the course of the event, the two will get the chance to test and compete in front of NBA teams, and get face time with them before the NCAA’s June 1 withdrawal deadline arrives.
