The 2023 NBA draft combined is scheduled to take place soon from May 15 to May 21, which means the draft season is right around the corner.
It looks like the Oklahoma City Thunder are underway with draft evaluations as they have begun conducting pre-draft visits. According to Rookie Wire, Illinois State guard Seneca Knight has recently worked out for the Thunder.

The 25-year-old averaged 12.3 points on 47.4% shooting, 5.9 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 32 games last season. He also shot 39.6% from 3 on three attempts.
Knight spent five seasons in college, where he spent the first three seasons at San Jose State before transferring to BYU for the 2021-22 season and eventually concluding his college career at Illinois State last year.
Knight is currently viewed as an undrafted free-agent target. With OKC’s rich history with UDFAs, this could be another low-risk investment for the Thunder.
The 2023 NBA draft is scheduled to happen on Thursday, June 22.
