Bryan Kalbrosky: One NBA scout told me the G League Elite Camp participant most likely to get drafted is EJ Onu. The 6’11 big man (7-foot-8 wingspan) won the NAIA national title with 16.9 ppg, 8.0 rpg, 4.5 bpg (!) while shooting 40% (!) on 3.9 3PA. Other participants: https://bit.ly/3vuN8EZ
EJ Onu Rumors
Connor Letourneau: Boise State’s Derrick Alston Jr., UCSB’s JaQuori McLaughlin, Shawnee State’s EJ Onu, Texas’ Jericho Sims, SDSU’s Jordan Schakel and Colorado’s McKinley Wright IV will work out for the Warriors tomorrow. Those are all second-round prospects or potential undrafted free agents.
Chris Grenham: NAIA All-American EJ Onu is among the prospects working out for the Celtics this week, according to a source. At 6’11” with a 7’6” wingspan, Onu led Shawnee State to a National Championship this past season. His athleticism will intrigue NBA front offices.
Shawnee State senior big man E.J. Onu has officially announced his intention to enter the NBA Draft, as announced by Onu himself on Thursday on social media.
