5. Chris Clemons, Campbell Camels

Chris Clemons was one of the most exciting college basketball players for Campbell University last season but it didn’t earn him an invite to the NBA Combine. Clemons led the NCAA in scoring (30.0 ppg) and shot 35.9 percent from 3-point range, overcoming his 5-foot-9 with his freakish athleticism and shooting ability.

Clemons finished his career at Campbell as the fourth-highest scorer in Division I history with 3,225 total points. This past season, he scored over 40 points on three different occasions. Granted, he played in the Big South but much of his ability carried over to the Portsmouth Invitational Tournament.

At the PIT, Clemons was named the tournament MVP among the 64 other seniors to grace the event. He produced 18.3 points per game to lead all scorers, but in the end, he still doesn’t have an invite to the combine.

His height would be a concern if he wasn’t such an athletic force in the paint. His style is a fearless one and if given the spotlight at the G-League Combine, it wouldn’t surprise me if he earned an invite to the NBA Combine.
