Auburn basketball has grown its reputation for developing players in recent years, with seven former Tigers selected in the NBA draft since 2019. Keyshawn Hall is poised to become the eighth after receiving an invitation to compete in the NBA Combine later this month.
Hall is one of 73 players invited to this year's combine, which is set to take place May 10-17 in Chicago, and one of 15 players from the SEC to receive an invite, joining the likes of Alabama's Labaron Philon, Vanderbilt's Tyler Tanner, and Arkansas' Trevon Brazile.
Hall shone in his lone season in Auburn by averaging a career-best 19.3 points over 33.6 minutes per game. He also logged 7.1 rebounds and connected on 45% of his shots. Hall scored at least 10 points in 28 of 29 regular-season games, and reached a season-high 32 points in back-to-back games, a loss to Texas A&M and a 22-point win over Arkansas, both inside Neville Arena. He averaged 15.8 points per game during Auburn's NIT Championship run, dropping 20 points in two of Auburn's five games during the stretch.
Hall will aim to impress NBA scouts at the event in Chicago later this month, which could determine whether he is the first NBA draft pick from Auburn since Johni Broome was selected No. 35 overall by the Philadelphia 76ers in the 2025 draft. Auburn has produced seven NBA draft picks since 2019 after producing just four in 19 years prior, with Jabari Smith, Walker Kessler, Isaac Okoro, and Chuma Okeke selected in the first round.
