The bench press portion of the NBA Mix isn’t anyplace close to as vital as it’s within the NFL Mix, however that doesn’t imply it isn’t enjoyable to debate.
If something, it’s attention-grabbing to see how high basketball prospects evaluate in energy to the common human being for the reason that bench complete they use for reps within the NBA mix – 185 kilos (nearly 84 kilograms) – is much extra attainable for the common individual than the NFL’s 225-pound bench press.
Probably the most well-known NBA Mix bench press story to this present day is Kevin Durant failing to hit even one rep of 185 kilos. One MVP and two championships later, Durant now says top prospects should skip the combine all together.
Probably sound recommendation for the gamers within the operating for the No. 1 choose.
Anyway, beneath, we current the bench press rankings from NBA All-Stars on the Draft Mix.
