Talk of the NBA Draft Combine actually taking place would give Elijah Hughes an additional opportunity to showcase his skills, talent and character.

Former Syracuse basketball star Elijah Hughes is seeing his stock climb in some mock NBA Drafts, and it’s basically a forgone conclusion at this point that he will hear his name called at the 2020 draft, an event that several media reports have indicated could take place in late August or early September.

At this juncture, Hughes may even rise up into the first round.
