Summary:
Luke Travers is a skilled scorer that been very efficient in making plays on both ends of the floor in limited minutes as a rotation player in the NBL. He’s not automatically draft eligible until 2023, so he still has at most two seasons to continue to build his game until he decides to enter the draft. While Travers has not seemed to have drawn much draft buzz as the other prospects in the NBL, he could move up draft boards if he can show teams that he can excel in either an expanded role or in extended minutes in the NBL.
