If Michigan State advances farther then yes. Otherwise I wouldn't be suprised if he went early second.

I wouldnt be surprised if he is late second rounnd no matter how far MSU goes

Yeah im not sold on Neitzel. ANybody got any love for Antanas Kavaliauskas from TAMU? I love his hustle, not sure it will translate in the NBA, but if TAMU goes far in this tourney it'll be because of him as much as Law or Joe Jones.

So of course this get's moved to the no man's land of the NCAA section :rollingeyes:

If Alando Tucker measures out to be over 6'6" with sneakers on he's a top 20 pick.

Can you at least move this to the NBA Draft section? The point of this thread was to have a place to get info from other posters on guys that could be making themselves serious draft prospects.

Everybody knows Derrick Byars from Vanderbilt but Shan Foster has been almost equally as impressive this season. He put on a show against GW. He's a big 6-6 guard that can flat out shoot and defend. I don't imagine he'll come out this year but he'll be "the Man" in Nashville in his senior season next year and I think he can be a late first/early second round pick.

I was impressed with Budinger of Arizona although he didn't have a very good game. I know he isn't exactly "unknown" but he gets a lot less hype that Oden or Durant (obviously for a reason because those two are legit) but he seemed to have a good feel for the game and was very unselfish for a player his age. I think he might be the #3 freshman from the past year and he might just be ready for the NBA game right now.

[Da KO King]

The impact of the NBA's age restriction is on full display now. This is probably the strongest freshman class since Kevin Garnett started the "prep to pro" trend.

If Budinger played like he has in any season before the age restriction he'd be a front-runner for Freshman of the Year.

Winthrops PG seemed pretty good to me. I don't know anything about him though (Name, year in school, etc.).

Umm we are talking little known players and Lofton is well known. How about Eric Maynor nails the game winner vs Duke, calm and cool under pressure. Daniel Hackett had a great game vs Texas, supposed to be a high school senior but didn't play like one scoring 20 points.

so far i have been looking at this and people have been posting a lot of names that are very well known....like roy hibbert demetrius nicholes and jamareo davidson...a good player noone knows about yet is collin falls the kid can shoot the three and nobody ever talks about him. he is a senior though so no time left.

[wang4three]

Grevis Vazquez like others have mentioned. Like Datz, I like Demitrius Nichols.

Others:

Curtis Sumpter, I feel like had not been for injuries he'd be a second rounder.

Warren Carter, his stock is on the rise.

Deron Washington, he plays reckless at times but he's a big time player and always seems to be in the right place during the clutch.

DJ White, but I'm not sure if he's really that little known.

I think Carl Landry and David Teague should get looks, they're solid players.

Derrick Byars was huge for Vandy against Wash St. I like his game.
