Draft Scouting Report
Rating: 74
Pro Comparison: Jericho Sims
Summary
A five-year fan favorite at Auburn, Cardwell doesn’t fit the typical profile of an NBA prospect when it comes to stats or awards. He does however have NBA size, has been around a lot of winning and has the ability to make others around him better due to his willingness to accept his role and star in it.
About
- All-time winningest player in Auburn history
- No. 4 all-time in blocked shots at Auburn
Strengths
- He is highly intelligent, a leader and has elite intangibles and is a great locker room presence.
- While he didn’t attend the combine, his listed size gives him legitimate NBA size for a center
- Rebounds, protects the rim and was among the best screeners in college.
Weaknesses
- Very limited offensively, all but four of his made field goals were at the rim and 77% of his made shots were dunks.
- Did not become a regular starter until his fifth year of college.
- Poor free-throw shooter who made just 45% from the line during his career.

Kings' Dylan Cardwell: Comes to terms with Kings
Cardwell agreed to a two-way contract with Sacramento on Thursday, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Cardwell is known for his ability to finish at the rim, converting on 70.0 percent of his field-goal attempts during his final season at Auburn while also averaging 2.5 offensive rebounds over 38 games. He works just as hard on the defensive end, as shown by 1.4 swats per matchup during the 2024-25 campaign.
