Two Iowa State standouts are making waves at the NBA Draft Combine in Chicago, as Joshua Jefferson and Milan Momcilovic put their skills to the test on Monday. The pair were among the first groups to hit the court for strength, agility, and shooting drills, aiming to catch the eyes of scouts and front office executives.

In an event that separates prospects from pretenders, both Cyclones showed flashes of promise. Jefferson and Momcilovic took part in the combine's rigorous testing on May 11, with more drills scheduled for Tuesday. Here's how they stacked up against the competition in key categories:

Shooting off the dribble:
- Joshua Jefferson: 16-of-30 (53.3%) — tied for 19th out of 26 participants
- Milan Momcilovic: 22-of-30 (73.3%) — tied for 5th out of 26 participants

Momcilovic's sharpshooting stood out, as he connected on nearly three-quarters of his attempts, placing him in the top tier of the combine. For Jefferson, the numbers offer a baseline as he looks to build on his all-around game during the pre-draft process.

With the draft quickly approaching, every drill and measurement counts. Both players will have another chance to improve their stock when testing resumes on Tuesday.
