Dennis Smith Jr. certainly made an impression.

The N.C. State standout reportedly tied the record for the highest vertical ever recorded in NBA history. Wilt Chamberlain and Darrell Griffith also hold the record.

During a pre-draft workout on Sunday with the Los Angeles Lakers, Smith Jr., 19, made a 48-inch vertical jump. The Lakers have the No. 2 and No. 28 picks in this year’s first round.

That’s a big accomplishment with the 2017 NBA draft right around the corner – Thursday, June 22.
