"I am very excited to be part of the MLS combine," Dally said. "It's something I've imagined in my head for years now, and to see it unfold it front of me is truly a blessing. I am trying to stay in the moment and enjoy this, but I also understand it is not the time to become complacent. Going to the MLS combine is a truly exciting step in my career, and I am excited to see what is next." During the combine, players will be allowed to showcase their talents in front of representatives from all 24 MLS clubs. All invited players will be eligible for selection in the 2019 SuperDraft, which will take place on Friday, Jan. 11 in Chicago's McCormick Place at 12:00 p.m. Dally recorded 16 points and 15 assists in his career with the Bobcats, playing in 78 career games - which ranks tied for No. 5 in program history.
