The NBA Combine has taken a different look this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It's been going on since late September, which kicked off a series of team and player interviews. Players then underwent on-court programs at local NBA facilities before undergoing various tests and taking part in a de-facto Pro Day.
由于COVID-19的疫情,NBA今年的联合试训有了全新的样貌。它始于9月下旬,并以一系列的球队和球员间面试拉开了序幕。随后,球员们在当地的NBA场馆里进行场上训练,然后接受了各种各样的测试,并参加了一个真正意义上的试训日。
Now the NBA draft, which is scheduled for Wednesday, Nov. 18, is around the corner. Some information about the top performers has dropped in recent days, and you can find that below from ESPN's Jonathan Givony, Bleacher Report's Jonathan Wasserman and HoopsHype's Bryan Kalbrosky.
现在,定于11月18日星期三举办的NBA选秀大会即将到来。在最近几天,关于顶尖球员的消息有所回落,而你可以从ESPN的乔纳森-吉沃尼、露天看台的的乔纳森-沃瑟曼和HoopsHype的布莱恩-卡尔布罗斯基的文章中找到以下这些信息。
In addition, here's a look at three of the top players at this year's combine alongside some analysis and reaction.
此外,我们还将针对今年联合试训里最出色的三位球员进行额外的分析和介绍。
注:为了阅读体验,提前解释几个名词:
选秀大榜单:Big Board,专家根据球员的真实实力和表现进行排名的榜单,有极强的主观性,不同人的排名完全不同。参考性较低。
模拟选秀榜单:Mock Draft,记者专家综合考虑球员实力,潜力,球队需求,内部消息等一些列因素后进行的模拟选秀。榜单参考性高于选秀大榜。
美联社排名:Associated Press,美联社根据NCAA球队的表现和实力进行的排名。
乔纳森-吉沃尼:ESPN现任选秀主管,前DraftExpress的站长。目前ESPN最出色的选秀记者。
迈克-施密茨:ESPN现任选秀球探记者,也是目前主流媒体里最顶尖的球探和选秀专家。
萨姆-维切尼:The Athletic的选秀主管,也是当下最好的选秀写手,在大学,球探和球队内部有不少消息源。
乔纳森-沃瑟曼:露天看台的选秀主管和写手,目前消息源和写作质量不如ESPN和The Athletic,有时候也会有些爆眼球的言论。但主体上也算是不错的选秀写手。

Jordan Nwora
乔丹-沃拉
Nwora averaged 18.0 points on 44.0 percent shooting (40.2 percent from three-point range) and 7.7 rebounds for the 24-7 Cardinals, who finished No. 14 in the Associated Press poll.
沃拉场均可得到18.0分,命中率44.0%(三分命中率为40.2%)和7.7个篮板,带领红雀拿到了24胜7负,在美联社的调查中名列第14。
He dominated the combine after finishing first in the three-point spot-up and endurance shooting drills and could have raised his draft stock in the process.
在三分定点投篮和耐力投篮训练中分别获得第一名后,他统治了整个联合试训,并且有可能在这个过程中提高自己的选秀行情。
Wasserman ranked him 47th on his latest big board and wrote the following: "Teams could see a shot-making specialist in Nwora based on his 6'7" size and 178 threes through three seasons at Louisville. He won't offer much as a passer or defender, but between his transition offense, self-creation and shooting, Nwora's scoring potential is worth buying with a second-round pick."
沃瑟曼在他最新的选秀大榜上将他排在第47位,并写道:“他凭借着6尺7的身高和在路易斯维尔的三个赛季里命中的178个三分,球队能够在沃拉身上看到神射手的影子。而在传球或防守端,他能够提供的帮助可不多,不过他的转换进攻,自主创造得分能力和投篮很出色,沃拉的得分潜力值得一个次轮签。
Sam Vecenie of The Athletic mocked Nwora 44th overall to the Chicago Bulls.
The Athletic的萨姆-维切尼在模拟选秀中预测他会在44顺位被芝加哥公牛带走。
Former Louisville guard Russ Smith, who won an NCAA championship with the Cardinals in 2013, also backed Nwora's draft stock:
前路易斯维尔后卫Russ Smith曾在2013年跟随红雀一起获得了NCAA冠军,他也支持沃拉:
russdiculous 🚥@Specter_Smit
Jordan Nwora is one of the best “shooting/slashing” scorers I’ve seen come through college basketball. N an up & down system, Jordan could’ve been a 25ppg player n college. As pro, in an up & down system he can have an amazing career given the opportunity. I hope he goes high! https://t.co/x5EVGG5cT3
乔丹-沃拉是我在大学篮球中见过的最佳“投篮/突破”得分手之一。如果在up & down战术体系里,乔丹本可以成为一位场均25分的大学球员。作为职业球员,在一个up & down体系中,他只要得到机会,就可以拥有一个惊人的职业生涯。我希望他能飞得更高!https://t.co/x5EVGG5cT3
Nwora has spoken with at least 20 NBA teams in advance of the draft, per Adam Zagoria of Zags Blog, including the New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets.
在Zags的博客中,Adam Zagoria透露,沃拉在选秀前已经至少和20支NBA的球队有过交谈,其中就包括纽约尼克斯和布鲁克林篮网。
There's little doubt that Nwora will find an NBA home on Nov. 18. The question is whether he can somehow sneak his way to the back end of the first round after an impressive combine performance.
毫无疑问,沃拉会在11月18日找到自己的NBA下家。而现在的问题是,在他令人印象深刻的试训表现后,他是否能想方设法偷到一个首轮末的席位。
Immanuel Quickley
伊曼纽尔-奎克利
Quickley posted 16.1 points on 41.6 percent shooting (42.8 percent from three-point range) and 4.2 rebounds during a breakout season with Kentucky last year.
去年,奎克利在肯塔基打出了一个突破性的赛季,场均可以得到16.1分,投篮命中率41.6%(三分命中率42.8%)和4.2个篮板。
The sophomore helped the Wildcats go 25-6 and finish No. 8 in the AP poll.
这位大二生帮助野猫取得了25胜6负的战绩,并且在美联社调查里名列第8。
Like Nwora, Quickley's sweet shooting could lead to a draft stock rise. He finished second to Nwora in the three-point spot-up and endurance shooting drills.
和沃拉相似,奎克利的优异投射有希望提高他的选秀行情。在三分定点投篮和耐力投篮训练中,他的表现仅次于沃拉。
Wasserman put Quickley 49th on his latest draft board: "Despite lacking creation skills and athleticism, Quickley could carve out a career by shooting off the catch and using his floater on drives past closeout defenders. His chances of sticking will skyrocket if he is picked by a veteran team that needs a shot-maker."
沃瑟曼在他最新的选秀大榜上把奎克利排在49顺位:“尽管缺乏得分创造力和运动能力,但奎克利可以通过接球就投和突破扑防对手后的小抛投得分来开创自己的生涯。如果他被一支需要自主投手的老辣队伍选中的话,那么他留在球队的机会将会大大增加。”
Vecenie has him going 38th overall to the New York Knicks.
维切尼将他排在了38顺位,被尼克斯选走。
Per Alder Almo of Empire Sports Media, Quickley has spoken to nearly the entire league:
根据Empire Sports Media的Alder Almo透露,奎克利机会和整个联盟都谈过。
alder almo@alderalmo
Immanuel Quickley’s trainer Jide Sodipo has told me that the Kentucky guard has talked to almost all NBA teams except the Blazers. And of the 29 teams, he has already interviewed twice with the Knicks, Lakers, Thunder, Jazz, Bucks, Pistons, and Heat. https://t.co/KQ0dhDbSej
伊曼纽尔-奎克利的训练师Jide Sodipo曾告诉我,这位肯塔基大学的后卫已经和除了开拓者之外的所有NBA球队都谈过了。在29支球队中,他已经两次面试了尼克斯、湖人、雷霆、爵士、雄鹿、活塞和热火。https://t.co/KQ0dhDbSej
Justin Rowland of Rivals wondered what Quickley could have done in the NCAA tournament if not for the COVID-19 pandemic cancelling March Madness:
Rivals的Justin Rowland想知道,如果“疯狂三月”没有因为新冠疫情而取消,那么在NCAA锦标赛上,奎克利还可以做些什么:
Justin Rowland@RowlandRIVALS
Just a shame we didn't get to see sophomore Quickley in the NCAA tournament. He was poised to carry them a long way. https://t.co/8vE1T2BNX5
遗憾的是,我们没法在NCAA锦标赛上看到大二生奎克利的身影了。他已经为此准备了很久。https://t.co/8vE1T2BNX5
Quickley lost an opportunity to raise his draft stock with a strong postseason, but a late combine surge could help him move up big boards.
奎克利失去了一个在淘汰赛中提升选秀行情的机会,但一个迟来的联合试训有助于他顺位提高。
Cassius Winston
卡修斯-温斯顿
Winston is one of the more accomplished college basketball players in this year's draft. His accolades include a pair of second-team All-American nods, two first-team All-Big Ten honors and a Big Ten Player of the Year award.
卡修斯-温斯顿是本届选秀中技术最好的大学球员之一。他的荣誉包括两次全美二阵,两次Big Ten一阵和一次Big Ten年度最佳球员。
During his senior year, Winston averaged 18.6 points, 5.9 assists and 2.5 boards per game. He shot 44.8 percent from the field and 43.2 percent from three-point range.
在大四赛季,温斯顿场均可得18.6分,5.9次助攻和2.5个篮板。他的投篮命中率为44.8%,三分命中率高达43.2%。
Wasserman ranked Winston, who landed in the top five of four shooting drill leaderboards during the combine, at 27th on his big board:
温斯顿在联合试训里的四门投射试训中都进入了前五,而沃瑟曼则在自己模拟大榜内将其排到了第27位。
"Some scouts already anticipate a steal in Winston, who will slip into the 20s or 30s because of his age (22) and limited tools and athleticism. At the least, he figures to land a backup role for his pick-and-roll play, while shooting versatility and accuracy should help Winston overcome expected struggles to separate and finish inside the arc."
“一些球探已经预料到温斯顿会成为一次不错的捡漏,因为他的年龄(22岁)、有限的身体素质和运动能力,可能会滑落到20甚至30多位。但至少,他有希望成为一个替补挡拆手的角色,而他的投篮多样性和准度则可以帮助温斯顿克服预期中在创造出手空间以及三分线内终结方面的挣扎。”
Winston lands with the Philadelphia 76ers at 34th overall in The Athletic's latest mock draft.
最新一期The Athletic的模拟选秀中,温斯顿被排在第34位,被费城76人选中。
Givony and Mike Schmitz (formerly of DraftExpress) praised Winston's college work and NBA prospects:
吉沃尼和迈克-施密茨(前DraftExpress球探)这样称赞温斯顿的大学成绩和NBA前景:
DraftExpressContent@DXContent
Cassius Winston is @NBA-ready. He's an elite shooter (career 43% 3PT%, 85% FT%) + is one of the best P+R players in the '20 draft. There's a reason #MSU rarely lost the past 3 seasons (83-21). @DraftExpress has learned not to discount prospects like him > https://t.co/Xz1oyXt2YV https://t.co/7b11EkyKVC
卡修斯-温斯顿是个NBA即战力。他是一名精英射手(职业生涯拥有43%的三分命中率和85%的罚球命中率),同时也是20年选秀中最好的挡拆手之一。这就是在过去的三个赛季里,密歇根州大很少输球(83胜21负)的原因。@DraftExpress已经学会了不要低估他这样的新人。DraftExpress

Perhaps Winston stays in-state: Detroit Pistons general manager Troy Weaver counts himself as a fan, per John Niyo of the Detroit News.
也许温斯顿会留在州内:底特律活塞队的总经理特洛伊-韦弗声称自己是听到球迷,来自于《底特律新闻》的John Niyo的消息。
John Niyo@JohnNiyo
Pistons GM Troy Weaver on Cassius Winston's NBA draft prospects: "Tremendous young man. I’m hopeful he gets his name called, but if he doesn’t, I think he has the spirit and mentality to find his way. I’m definitely rooting for him."
活塞总经理特洛伊-韦弗这样评价卡修斯-温斯顿的NBA选秀前景:“他是个出色的年轻人。我希望他能听到有人喊他的名字,但如果他没有,我认为他的精神和心态足以让他找到自己的道路。我绝对支持他。”
And one NBA executive told Mike Singer of the Denver Post that Winston reminded him of Denver Nuggets guard Monte Morris, an integral part of the Western Conference finalist's rotation.
而一位NBA高管告诉《丹佛邮报》的Mike Singer,温斯顿让他想起了掘金的后卫蒙特-莫里斯,他们西决阵容中不可或缺的一员。
Mike Singer@msinger
Talked to one NBA executive today who made the Cassius Winston-Monte Morris comparison. Not the first time I’ve heard it, either.
和一位NBA经理聊过,他把卡修斯-温斯顿的模板定为了蒙特-莫里斯。这也不是我第一次听到这个说法了。
Winston could easily find himself in the first round thanks to his college resume, combine performance and sterling reputation.
得益于出色的大学简历,试训表现和良好的表现,温斯顿可以轻易地在首轮找到自己的位置。
The NBA Combine has taken a different look this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. It's been going on since late September, which kicked off a series of team and player interviews. Players then underwent on-court programs at local NBA facilities before undergoing various tests and taking part in a de-facto Pro Day.
由于COVID-19的疫情,NBA今年的联合试训有了全新的样貌。它始于9月下旬,并以一系列的球队和球员间面试拉开了序幕。随后,球员们在当地的NBA场馆里进行场上训练,然后接受了各种各样的测试,并参加了一个真正意义上的试训日。

温斯顿在联合试训里的四门投射试训中都进入了前五,而沃瑟曼则在自己模拟大榜内将其排到了第27位。
"Some scouts already anticipate a steal in Winston, who will slip into the 20s or 30s because of his age (22) and limited tools and athleticism. At the least, he figures to land a backup role for his pick-and-roll play, while shooting versatility and accuracy should help Winston overcome expected struggles to separate and finish inside the arc."
“一些球探已经预料到温斯顿会成为一次不错的捡漏,因为他的年龄(22岁)、有限的身体素质和运动能力,可能会滑落到20甚至30多位。但至少,他有希望成为一个替补挡拆手的角色,而他的投篮多样性和准度则可以帮助温斯顿克服预期中在创造出手空间以及三分线内终结方面的挣扎。”
Winston lands with the Philadelphia 76ers at 34th overall in The Athletic's latest mock draft.
最新一期The Athletic的模拟选秀中,温斯顿被排在第34位,被费城76人选中。

吉沃尼和迈克-施密茨(前DraftExpress球探)这样称赞温斯顿的大学成绩和NBA前景:
DraftExpressContent@DXContent
Cassius Winston is @NBA-ready. He's an elite shooter (career 43% 3PT%, 85% FT%) + is one of the best P+R players in the '20 draft. There's a reason #MSU rarely lost the past 3 seasons (83-21). @DraftExpress has learned not to discount prospects like him > https://t.co/Xz1oyXt2YV https://t.co/7b11EkyKVC
卡修斯-温斯顿是个NBA即战力。他是一名精英射手(职业生涯拥有43%的三分命中率和85%的罚球命中率),同时也是20年选秀中最好的挡拆手之一。这就是在过去的三个赛季里,密歇根州大很少输球(83胜21负)的原因。@DraftExpress已经学会了不要低估他这样的新人。DraftExpress
