Pre NBA draft Brice Sensabaugh mock Roundup

[ad_1]

With the NBA draft lottery on May 16, talk around the NBA draft will start to heat up in the coming weeks. After a stellar freshman season, Ohio State forward, Brice Sensabaugh, is a name that is expected to be announced in the first round on draft night.

Sensabaugh arrived on campus as the No. 6 ranked player and 18th ranked small forward in the 2022 class.  He was expected to make an impact as a freshman, but not quite the splash he ended up making.

He started the season coming off the bench, but it was apparent from the beginning of the season that Sensabaugh was a very good shot-creator and a scorer.

He went for double digits in 29 of his 33 games and finished the season as the team’s leading scorer with 16.3 points per game.
