Cameron Oliver looking to raise stock at NBA combine
(Photo: Lance Iversen/USA TODAY Sports)Nevada's Cameron Oliver modeled his game after a pair of current NBA All-Stars: the Warriors' Draymond Green and the Hawks' Paul Millsap.
Both of those players were second-round picks before becoming two of the league's best players. If the NBA draft was held today – it's not; it's June 22 – Oliver would likely be a second-round selection, too.
But the 20-year-old Oliver has a chance this week to boost his stock. Along with 66 other draft hopefuls, Oliver will participate in the NBA scouting combine in Chicago, which began Tuesday and ends Saturday.
