Arizona wing Carter Bryant earned an invite to the 2025 NBA Draft green room, ESPN’s Jonathan Givony first reported on Tuesday.
Bryant is viewed as a late-lottery pick, coming in at ninth on The Athletic’s Top 100 and 14th on ESPN’s mock draft, both of which were updated Tuesday.
The 19-year-old impressed NBA clubs with his combine performance, making 23 of his 46 shots across two 3-point drills. He also had the fourth-best vertical leap of the combine with a 39.5-inch jump.
Bryant measured in at 6-foot-6.5 out of shoes with a 6-foot-11.75 wingspan, weighing in at 214.8 pounds.

He eased his way into Arizona’s rotation as a true freshman early, notching a strand of three consecutive starts. He became a much more integral contributor once conference play rolled around after the frontcourt rotation worked through the loss of 7-foot-2 big man Motiejus Krivas.
He averaged 7.4 points (40.5% from 3), 4.6 rebounds and 1.2 blocks per game over his final 26 contests, forgoing his remaining eligibility to be the program’s latest one-and-done.
