SG Malaki Branham (B1G Freshman of the Year, San Antonio Spurs)



But Branham hasn’t flown the coop just yet. Still awaiting the NBA Draft Combine in May, Branham has not yet heard from NBA general managers, instead hearing only what Holtmann has told him through his own communication with scouts and front offices.

Branham still trains with the Buckeye coaching staff, on occasion, in conjunction with his longtime personal trainer.

“I’m still working with the same trainers. I work with Coach Diebler probably once or twice every week, so I still work out with him,” Branham said. “Then I work out with my trainer, Jason Dawson.”
