Utah basketball commit Noam Yaacov has been granted an opportunity to showcase his skills in front of NBA personnel and scouts. The Israeli guard who signed with the Runnin' Utes in late April was among the 44 college and international players who've been invited to the NBA G League combine, a scouting event in Chicago held just prior to the main NBA draft combine. The three-day event will give Yaacov a chance to gain insight and feedback from NBA decision makers as he competes and tests alongside other draft hopefuls in five-on-five scrimmages and strength and agility drills from Chicago's Wintrust Arena. Yaacov isn't projected to get picked in the 2026 NBA Draft according to most mock drafts, though he's considered by some to be one of Europe's top guard prospects making the transition to the U.S. college game. Yaacov, who turns 22 years old in October, is averaging 18 points, 5.8 assists and 4 rebounds with Belgium pro club Oos Filou Oostende, which plays in the BNXT League.β¦
