Izan Almansa 2025 NBA Draft Combine Issued Jersey

This NBA Draft Combine jersey was issued to Izan Almansa on May 13, 2025 in Chicago, at Wintrust Arena and the Marriott Marquis Hotel.

With a 6’10”, ~230 lb frame and a 7'1" wingspan, Izan Almansa offers a unique blend of international polish and frontcourt versatility. He moves well for his size, shows skilled finishing around the rim—including floaters and hook shots—and brings solid rebounding instincts.

Almansa has gone pro across several elite environments:

• G League Ignite (2023–24): Averaged 11.7 PPG, 7.4 RPG, 1.2 APG, and 0.5 BPG with a 55.6% FG in 32 games.
• Perth Wildcats, NBL Next Stars (2024–25): In 33 games, he averaged 6.8 PPG, 3.9 RPG, shooting ~51% FG.

He earned MVP honors in international youth competition—specifically the 2022 FIBA U17 & U18 events, as well as the 2023 U19 World Cup.

Almansa declared for the 2025 NBA Draft in April after withdrawing from the 2024 class. He participated in elite workouts (NYK, MIL) and the NBA Combine. His draft range is projected from late first round to second, based on size, mobility, and potential fit.

Scouts highlight Almansa as a skilled roll-man, floor-spacing big, and offensive rebounder—but note his need for physical strength and consistent outside shooting. His athleticism and energy earned praise during his Australia debut.

Blending international pedigree, frontcourt size, and versatile finishing, Almansa profiles as a high-upside developmental big: a mobile, offensive-minded frontcourt piece who—with added strength and perimeter development—could contribute as an NBA center/forward. His draft stock reflects that projection, hovering around the second-round mark.
