Bulls headline the list of winners and losers coming out of the combine

Key Points:

• Bryson Graham quickly made an impact as the Bulls' new executive vice president of basketball operations, benefiting from a draft lottery jump from No. 9 to No. 4, giving the franchise a prime position in a strong draft class.
• Graham has begun building his front office by hiring Stephen Mervis from the Magic and Acie Law from the Nets, leveraging the Bulls' improved draft position to attract top talent.
• Combine standouts include AJ Dybantsa (Wizards' likely No. 1 pick), Mikel Brown Jr., Chris Cenac Jr., and Cameron Carr, all of whom boosted their draft stock with strong athletic and skill performances.
• Some prospects like Koa Peat and Amari Allen saw their draft outlooks diminish due to disappointing measurements and shooting drills, with Peat possibly considering returning to college.
• The NBA will implement a new "3-2-1" lottery system next season to reduce incentives for tanking, decreasing the odds for the three worst teams and encouraging more competitive play.
