Drew Timme, Julian Strawther invited to 2023 NBA Draft Combine

Drew Timme and Julian Strawther are hoping to add their names to the long list of Gonzaga players selected in the NBA draft.

Both players took a step in that direction on Tuesday when they were included on the official invitation list for the 2023 NBA Draft Combine. It will take place May 15-21 at Wintrust Arena in Chicago.

You can watch the NBA Draft Combine on May 17 on ESPN2 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. PT, and May 18 from 1-5 p.m. PT on ESPN2.

In ESPN's latest mock draft - put together by Jonathan Givony and Jeremy Woo - they have Strawther being drafted in the second round with the 49th pick by the Los Angeles Clippers. Timme is not listed in ESPN's mock draft.

USA Today's latest mock draft has Strawther being drafted in the second round (pick No. 36) by the Orlando Magic, and Timme being selected 16 picks later at No. 52 by the Phoenix Suns.

Both players are hoping to improve their draft stock with their performances at the combine. Over the seven-day event, they will play in five-on-five games, participate in shooting, strength and agility drills and be interviewed by NBA teams.

Here is the full list of 78 players invited to the 2023 NBA Draft Combine. The consensus top overall pick, Victor Wembanyama, was not invited because his season in France is still going.
