CINCINNATI — Cincinnati basketball guard John Newman III worked out with the Washington Wizards this week ahead of the 2024 NBA Draft.

The All-Big 12 defensive standout is not on an NBA draft big board as he takes the professional leap, but the workout is a good sign for him to get a pro chance somewhere.
