CJ Huntley
So far he has had 8 private workouts with NBA teams over the last few weeks. He has worked out for Hornets, Pelicans, Bulls, Clippers, Warriors, Suns, Lakers, and Cavs. Does he have a shot to get drafted late? I would think he has strong odds to get signed as a UDFA but wondering if he could slide into round 2. Here are the picks of those teams who he has worked out for.
> Second Round
33. Charlotte
34. Charlotte (from New Orleans via San Antonio, Phoenix, and Memphis)
41. Golden State (from Miami via Brooklyn and Indiana)
45. Chicago (from Sacramento)
49. Cleveland (from Milwaukee)
51. LA Clippers (from Minnesota via Atlanta and Houston)
52. Phoenix (from Denver via Charlotte and Minnesota)
55. Los Angeles Lakers
58. Cleveland

Re: CJ Huntley
It would be big for us but I am with you. I am fully expecting him to get signed by a NBA team after the draft or straight to G-League. I don't normally watch the NBA Draft but will tune in for the second round just to see if he is picked or his name is mentioned at all.

Re: CJ Huntley
Update on Huntley since some things have changed and the draft starts tonight.
He started the draft process with a real good showing at the PIT pre-combine tournament and then had 11 confirmed private workouts with NBA teams over the last few weeks. He has worked out for Chicago Bulls, LA Clippers, New Orleans Pelicans, Cleveland Cavaliers, Charlotte Hornets, Phoenix Suns, Golden State Warriors, La Lakers, Sacramento Kings, Dallas Mavericks, and Toronto Raptors.
Here are the picks of those teams who he has worked out for.
Second Round
33 Charlotte Hornets
34 Charlotte Hornets
39 Toronto Raptors
41 Golden State Warriors
42 Sacramento Kings
45 Chicago Bulls
49 Cleveland Cavaliers
51 Los Angeles Clippers
52 Phoenix Suns
55 Los Angeles Lakers
58 Cleveland Cavaliers
It will be interesting to see if he is signed by one of these teams or someone who did not have him in for a workout.

Re: CJ Huntley
5th senior 2nd rounders are g-league, two-way contract players for depth. He’s likely seen as a stretch 4 with below average defense at the next level.
Amazing person and would love for him to land anywhere.

Re: CJ Huntley
Same here. Hopefully he has a contract offer from a NBA or G-League team by the end of tonight. Good luck to CJ!

Re: CJ Huntley
The hornets become an interesting location after they traded away Mark Williams last night.

Only if the Hornets are looking to play "five out".ASUFan4863 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 26, 2025 10:51 amThe hornets become an interesting location after they traded away Mark Williams last night.
Not really much correlation between Mark Williams and Huntley's games.
A team will likely sign him if they need to round out their g-league team with a stretch 4.

Re: CJ Huntley
I will be pleasantly surprised if he is drafted but I fully expect someone to sign him for training camp and send him to their G-League team like you said. I wish him all the luck in the world and will be pulling hard for him tonight!Saint3333 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 26, 2025 2:46 pmOnly if the Hornets are looking to play "five out".ASUFan4863 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 26, 2025 10:51 amThe hornets become an interesting location after they traded away Mark Williams last night.
