Report: Landers Nolley II 'Gaining Steam' in Second Round of 2023 NBA Draft
CINCINNATI — The NBA Draft workouts are wrapped as Landers Nolley II visited nearly half the NBA teams in his trek during draft season.
Stockrisers Jake Weingarten is reporting that Nolley has gained some second-round traction as the process moved along and he could get picked "in the 40s" on Thursday night.
For what it's worth, Nolley did not get selected in ESPN's latest full mock draft.
He announced on April 7 that he would not return to college for his final season of eligibility.
Nolley earned All-AAC first-team honors this past season after posting 16.8 points per game, 5.8 rebounds, and 2.6 assists. He started all 36 games as a scoring stalwart and posted one of the greatest three-point shooting seasons in program history (41.7% on 6.8 tries per game).
Cincinnati has not had an NBA draft pick since Jacob Evans in 2018. Tari Eason got drafted last year but finished his college career with LSU.
Nolley is still unlikely to get drafted right now but should get a look in some training camps or the G-League as he rises up draft boards.
He was ranked 79th on the consensus database during our last visit check-in and is now up to 75th. He's peaked as high as No. 60 (58 total picks in the draft).
