The NBA Draft is less than two weeks away and two former Jayhawks, Tre White and Melvin Council Jr., have had a busy few months.
Both are projected to be late second-round picks or undrafted free agents who figure to find teams ahead of the Las Vegas summer league.
An NBA source recently told The Star that Council looked “great” at a particular recent workout and was doing “really, really good.”
According to a source close to the pair, the two former Jayhawks recently worked out together for the Brooklyn Nets and Sacramento Kings. The entire list of teams for whom both players have worked out is much larger, however.
