🔼 Eyes On History. It’s a dream that VJ Edgecombe has had since he was old enough to dribble.

That dream is a couple hours away as the former Baylor standout inches closer to being a selection in the 2025 NBA Draft tonight at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y.

The 6-4 guard has the possibility of being the highest ever draft pick in program history with projections having him being selected with either the third pick by the Philadelphia 76ers or the fourth pick by the Charlotte Hornets.

Four other BU players have been top-10 picks, the highest being Ekpe Udoh at No. 6 overall in 2010 by the Golden State Warriors.
