2007 NBA DRAFT EARLY ENTRY UNDERCLASSMAN LIST
Originally, in May, 83 players, including 58 players from U.S. colleges and institutions and 25 international players, filed as early entry candidates for the 2007 NBA Draft. They had until April 29 to declare for NBA draft early entry. And they had until 5 p.m. ET on June 18 to withdraw and return to college (provided they hadn't ruined their NCAA eligibility by hiring an agent, signing shoe deals, etc.) or overseas (if they were an international player).
And today, June 19, it was announced that 46 players who had declared as early entry candidates for the 2007 NBA Draft have withdrawn their names from the draft. This leaves 32 collegiate and six international prospects that are final, official 2007 NBA Draft early entry candidates.
The 2007 Draft is Thursday, June 28 at The Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
