Taquean Dean is going to shoot the lights out watch.

Joah Tucker got an invite...hope he can make some noise.

Re:
 

is Ron Artest playing in the summer league again?

I'm interested in seeing the official player measurements.

i'm just hoping denham brown does good enough to be drafted. hopefully he forces the raps to take him 35th overall.

hopefully he does just enough to get drafted and the raps take him 56th

Re: Predraft
 

I think Bobby Jones from Washington would be a better fit. He's not as good offensively but much better defensively

denham isn't that bad of a defender. he was uconn's best actually. he'd be average at worst in the nba cause he's not really that fast laterally.

(* -- Still hasn't signed with an agent and could return to school.)

Some well-known names currently are not on the list. These are players who are still technically on the fence as to whether they're staying in the draft but aren't committing to Orlando, weren't invited, were injured and can't participate or chose not to participate. That list includes: Pitt junior center Aaron Gray, UCLA sophomore guard Arron Afflalo, Connecticut junior forward Josh Boone, Nevada junior forward Nick Fazekas, Colorado sophomore guard Richard Roby, Villanova sophomore guard Kyle Lowry, Michigan State junior guard Shannon Brown and George Washington junior guard Carl Elliott.

Lowry is expected to work out in front of NBA personnel on Wednesday. Gray is scheduled to be in Orlando for the physical-only portion of the camp and could end up having a workout outside of the draft camp.

Here is a look at the team-by-team breakdowns for the camp: Team 1: Dials, Farmar, Horton, Jones, McCray, Mensah-Bonsu, Millsap, Noel, Novak, Ray
Team 2: Adeleke, Batista, Bowman, D. Brown, Hicks, Jones, Krauser, Mitchell, Washington, E. Williams
Team 3: Anderson, Augustine, Grunfeld, Haryasz, Keyru, Killingsworth, Shakur, S. Smith, J. Tucker, Watson, J, Williams
Team 4: Balkman, Blalock, Buckman, Dean, Hill, McNamara, Miller, Pinnock, Slaughter, Southall, Stinson
Team 5: Clark, Francis, Gibson, Kinsey, Newley, Powe, Quinn, Robinson, Schilb, C. Smith, Vouyoukas
Team 6: Almond, Amundson, B. Brown, Caner-Medley, Dockery, George, Gray, Karl, Nicholson, P.J. Tucker, Withers

PJ Tucker, Daniel Gibson, and Leon Powe will not be playing in the camp.

Wonder if that means Gibson is going back to school.

I think Tucker really needed to play in the camp to help himself.
