RJ Luis miscalculates market, transfers attract attention and more takeaways after 2025 NBA Draft

Posted Jul 4, 2025
RJ Luis was the lone college player on the NBA's early-entrant list who wound up going undrafted even amidst a watered-down second round. Alabama's Labaron Philon, UAB's Yaxel Lendeborg and Auburn's Tahaad Pettiford all had more NBA Draft buzz than Luis and chose to return to school. Luis did not, instead choosing to bet on himself in the pre-draft process. (CBS Sports)
