Summary:

Caleb Homesley is an athletic, skilled swingman that could project to be a 3 and D type of role player in the NBA.  He scored 30 points to get his team an upset win over Mississippi State in the 2019 NCAA Tournament, and he has helped his team get 58 wins in the past two seasons.  On the downside, he’s had a history of knee injuries, and hasn’t often faced top-notch competition due to playing at a small school, but he’s shown that he can play well on the big stage.  Right now, he may project to be a borderline second round candidate for the 2020 draft.
