JAYLEN WELLS WAS surprisingly left off the 78-member invite list for the NBA Combine last week but three days later, he became the 79th player to be invited. Why the delay?. ESPN's Jonathan Givony reported Wells' late invite could mean the NBA didn't have enough players for the combine scrimmages, needing about 40–44 players. "Makes sense since at least 8 of the 78 Combine invites are still playing, another two are going through Fitness-to-Play panel, and 37 players declined to play 5x5 last year," said Givony.
