Conwell was named to the All-ACC second team this past season, averaging 18.8 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 1.1 steals while shooting 34.5% shooting from 3-point range. He ranked 13th in the country in total 3s (112) and fifth in the conference in scoring.
The 6-foot-3 guard visited the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday for his first of an estimated 10-12 workouts throughout the predraft process. He wants to enjoy the process of traveling across the country while showcasing his abilities.
"I'm really just taking it one day at a time, trying to enjoy each and every single experience, whether things go good or go bad," Conwell said. "I'm just trying to see everything as a blessing and take it one day at a time and make the most of it."
Conwell was among the prospects who competed in the draft combine last week, emerging as one of the top scrimmage performers. He erupted for a 21-point performance on May 14 after knocking down five 3-pointers in 23 minutes.
The 21-year-old is projected to be a second-round pick this year because of his ability as a lead guard who can get to his spots and score. He is also crafty with the ball, creating space for himself with his array of moves and quickness.
Conwell is focused on proving during his workouts that he can impact games in various ways. Those sessions will be a tremendous opportunity to improve his draft stock.
"My overall game, to be honest," Conwell said. "A lot of people know I'm a good shooter and can space the floor, but also I can just make plays with the ball in my hands and a good defender as well."
