dj stephens
Amazing Vertical, but he didn't do it in the combine. That's the only reason he's not on here.
Yeah where is dj stephens and lebron
Lebron is reported to have a 44" and Stephens a 46" so they would of made it but neither of them did it at the draft combine.
Zach has a 45
Yeah, but he only jumped 41.5 in the draft combine. These numbers are based on the draft combine results only.
46 actually
