2023 Draft Profile - Kobe Bufkin

Jonathan Wasserman - Bleacher Report - June 21st: "Kobe Bufkin has fans in the lottery. And both his workout schedule and camp have also been quiet, leaving some to believe he has a good idea of where he may end up. The guard offers both skill versatility and IQ, making him highly adaptable to any situation."

Gary Parrish - CBS Sports - June 20th: "Bufkin's pre-draft workouts have garnered rave reviews, so much so that the guard with a 6-8 wingspan is now expected to be a lottery pick. He made 35.5% of the 3.7 3-pointers he attempted per game this season"

NBA Draft Room - May 16th: "A smooth operator who excels at putting the ball in the basket. Doesn’t have great size but fits the modern game."

John Fanta - Fox Sports - May 12: "With seven 20-plus point games this past season including averaging over 20 in the final five contests of the season, he blossomed into a first-round prospect that can flat-out score it."

Tyler Byrum and Chase Hughes - NBC Sports - May 8th: "Finding natural point guards who possess first-round talent is becoming more rare as NBA Drafts pass by. Bufkin, however, has the full package to run an offense and be a scoring threat in every corner of the court."

Bryan Kalbrosky - For the Win - May 5th: "All-Big Ten guard Kobe Bufkin was highly impactful for his team, averaging 14.0 points and 4.5 rebounds with 2.9 assists and 1.3 steals per game. Michigan outscored opponents by 9.9 points per 100 possessions when Bufkin was on the floor, per Pivot Analysis."
