The 7-footer was +900 to go in the top 20 and was expected to go between the 21st and 30th picks in the draft. He will have to wait one day longer to hear his name called.
Filipowski averaged 16.4 points and 8.3 rebounds per game for the Duke Blue Devils this past season. He led the Blue Devils in both points and rebounding.
During his freshman season, he averaged 15.1 points and 8.9 rebounds per game.
Filipowski was the No. 4 ranked recruit in the country in the 2022 class, according to 247Sports.
