The NBA Combine scrimmages in Chicago gave Arkansas basketball fans a first look at how two of their own—Trevon Brazile and Billy Richmond III—stack up against the nation's top prospects. With the 2026 draft looming, every possession matters, and these Razorbacks didn't disappoint.

While fellow Hogs Darius Acuff Jr. and Meleek Thomas sat out the 5-on-5 action, Brazile and Richmond stepped into the spotlight on May 13-14. For a program reloading under John Calipari, their performances offer plenty to talk about.

Brazile showcased the athleticism that made him a standout in Fayetteville, using his length to disrupt shots and finish above the rim. Richmond, meanwhile, brought the energy and versatility that could make him a draft sleeper. Both players faced intense competition, but they held their own in drills that test everything from footwork to decision-making.

For Arkansas fans wondering about next season's roster, these scrimmages are a key piece of the puzzle. Will Richmond return to the Hogs? Where does Acuff land in mock drafts? And can Thomas build on this momentum? The combine answers some questions—and raises plenty more.
