Thomas Sorber is a tall and lengthy, which will be needed going into the NBA. He is listed at 6-feet-10-inches and weight 255 pounds. Sorber is one of the lengthy prospects coming into the draft, whose 7’6″ wingspan and 9’1″ standing reach has captured many team’s attention.
Sorber is projected to be a picked somewhere between the 17th-19th pick, according to multiple mock drafts. Despite suffering a season ending injury in February of 2025 that limited him from his pre-draft workouts, Sober has still maintained his status as one of the best prospects in 2025 draft class. The biggest reason why is his defensive prowess, as he can provide rim protection with his length, making him an intriguing prospect.
